Form & Verdict
His last win was on AW 17 months ago but that was in a Listed race and he's shown signs of a revival with his creditable frame efforts on turf (7f, good to firm) in last two starts; remains very well treated on his old sprint form and he's a key player back at this trip.

9st 7lb

J: Sean Levey

T: Richard Hannon

He had dropped a long way in the weights prior to his fine third at York's Dante meeting and he confirmed his wellbeing when seeing off 20 rivals back at York two weeks later (7f, good); ran poorly when an odds-on favourite at Chepstow one week later; fully effective over C&D; can't be dismissed.

J: Alec Voikhansky

Useful in his younger days and, having regressed last year, has found his level again of late; easily beat a big field from the front at York last weekend and a 6lb rise may well be within range now he's back in the groove.

Last turf win came off an 11lb higher mark at Newmarket in August 2022 (6f, good to firm) but has won twice on AW since (6f/7f); sound run when close third to Delicacy over C&D last time last time (good to firm) and although 2lb higher is one with a chance.

Form & Verdict
Some creditable efforts this season including a second of 19 on the other course here (6f, good) in April; looks well treated on that form but he's not easy to predict and was well held in the Stewards' Cup last time; needs to step up again after that and he's managed just one win from his last 18 runs.

Has had more success on AW and his last turf win was in 2023; several bits of 2024 and 2025 turf form give him a good shout off this career-low mark but his more recent efforts are less encouraging.

Beat Fierce by a neck when winning over C&D in March and he arrives here 7lb better off with his old rival; second run back from a summer break was better than the first and he should make a bold bid.

Form & Verdict
Made it 2-4 when scoring in good style on his handicap debut here (6f, good) in April; disappointing in next two runs but he got back on track with creditable second at this course (7f, good to firm) last time; that was behind a big improver and he's respected on this drop back in trip.

Form & Verdict
No win since the 2020 Portland and has mixed record this season but he's on a very dangerous mark and didn't get any luck when fourth in the Stewards' Cup consolation race (6f, good to firm) last time; was beaten less than 2l that day and is a big player if he can back that up.

Form & Verdict
Has a patchy record and he finished last in the Stewards' Cup at Goodwood last time but he's won twice this season including at Hamilton (6f, good to firm) on his penultimate run; remains feasibly treated on that form and he was a good second off 3lb higher in this race last year; looks interesting if he can bounce back again.
