J: Jack Callan

Runner-up in last season's Group 2 Gimcrack at York but that form hasn't worked out at all; has come up well short in Group 2, Group 1 and Listed company in three runs this year; had a wind op since latest start but still not an obvious one to enhance his trainer's fine record in this race.

Chased home Lifeplan in the Gimcrack last August; well beaten in Group 2/Group 1 events so far this year; this drop in class could revive his fortunes but he is up against some progressive sorts.

Second in the Gimcrack at York (6f, good to firm) last August but well beaten in the Mill Reef at Newbury (6f, good to soft) next time and same story in the Sandy Lane at Haydock (6f, good to soft) last month; cheekpieces and the return to fast ground could help but others have less to prove.

J: Kevin Stott

T: Kevin Ryan

Raced at 6f; smart 2yo, notably second in the Gimcrack at York; below par tackling going softer than good for the first when sixth in the Mill Reef at Newbury on final start, which is a bit of a concern should the ground here remain on the soft side; on a positive note, his yard has won this twice since 2019, including with Inisherin in these silks two years ago.

J: Kevin Stott

Campaigned exclusively over 6f on good/firmer; has shown very notable form the last twice, beating all bar the smart favourite in C&D Listed event then clear second in the Gimcrack at York; leading form claims.
