Won the 17-runner Chester Plate (2m2f, good) in May and beat Team Player by a nose to score at Newbury in July; another step forward when second in Shergar Cup race at Ascot (again 2m on good to firm) 11 days ago and a 1lb rise surely won't prevent another bold show.

J: Ryan Moore

T: Andrew Balding

Won the 17-runner Chester Plate (2m2f, good) in May on return to turf and went in again last time at Newbury (2m, good to firm), where it was hard work in the end but he travelled strongly deep into the race; only 3lb higher and hasn't had a lot of racing.

Pretty consistent in seven AW runs and well backed when leading final 1f to win the 17-runner Chester Plate (2m2f, good) in May on return to turf; failed to live up to favouritism in another consolation race at Newcastle (2m Vase, AW) three weeks ago but that sixth of 20 off this mark was his best form, so he remains one to be interested in.

Pretty consistent in seven AW runs and well backed when leading final 1f to win the 17-runner Chester Plate (2m2f) on last month's return to turf; up 5lb but he's a rising force.

J: Rob Hornby

T: Andrew Balding

Well beaten at Newmarket (good) last September on handicap debut but pretty consistent in his five AW races since, on last two occasions winning over 1m6f and second of 14 over 2m; peak AW form needs to be transferred.
