J: Jack Nicholls

T: K R Burke

Made a winning reappearance at Musselburgh (1m, good to soft; first start since being gelded) in April and he also went close there over 1m1f in June; down the field at Goodwood (1m2f, good to firm) 12 days ago having raced freely, but it's likely this slight drop back in trip will suit.

J: Pierre-Louis Jamin

T: K R Burke

Three wins from ten races, the latest win in April on reappearance; well beaten here in May but that was 7f and he's done much better when finishing close up from towards rear over 1m1f at Musselburgh on his two outings since; better is needed but 1m2f looks plausible.

Three wins at 7f and 1m (on this track; good to soft) but topped those efforts when a running-on close third, just behind Pandemonium over C&D (good; same terms) this month; should have more options now he's shown he stays this far; solid chance for last year's winning yard.

Has done well for one who opened his account in a seller, bagging his second handicap over 1m here in April; however, progress has stalled, markedly so in his last two races (competitive ones admittedly).

J: Laura Coughlan

Three-time winner at 7f-1m and steadily progressive until a below-par effort at Chester (7.5f) most recently; may bounce back but this is no easy task off current mark in such a competitive affair.
