J: Hollie Doyle

T: Archie Watson

Made the frame in valuable handicaps at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm) in June and Newmarket (6f, good to firm) in July, but then ran poorly at the Shergar Cup two weeks ago; his record now reads just one win from ten attempts and he has something to prove in a race as competitive as this one.

J: Joanna Mason

T: Archie Watson

In the frame in notable handicaps at the Royal meeting (5f, good to firm) and Newmarket (6f, good to firm) on his last two starts; 11lb better off with Prince Of India for just over 4l on the latter occasion; no obvious reason why he wouldn't give his running again.

J: Hollie Doyle

T: Archie Watson

Ran his best race when keeping on for fourth of 24 in the Palace Of Holyroodhouse at Royal Ascot three weeks ago (5f, good to firm; cheekpieces first time); looked ready for the return to 6f on that occasion but is perhaps vulnerable to a few lurking further down the weights.

9st 5lb

J: Hollie Doyle

T: Archie Watson

Didn't look obviously well handicapped ahead of his reappearance at Sandown in April and he was only fourth of nine despite being notably strong in the betting; again only midfield in a hot York handicap three weeks ago but that run was eyecatching, slowly away and in rear before finishing his race with a flourish (fastest finishing split); he wouldn't want to repeat the slow start today but he's dropped 2lb and this race could be more receptive to those held up; stable won this in 2023; won his only start on good to firm; strong suspicion there's a bigger performance looming and new cheekpieces could help.

J: Hollie Doyle

T: Archie Watson

Came up short in Group races after winning a Ripon maiden last August; notably strong in the betting on his seasonal/handicap debut at Sandown last month and ran creditably, albeit without looking ahead of his mark; could do with settling better if he's to come out on top here.
