Form & Verdict
Kept to 6f this season, winning the Abernant first time back and under 4l away in the Platinum Jubilee and the July Cup (both Group 1s); sights lowered quite considerably here but, while returning to 7f won't hurt (runner-up in this last year), all her worthwhile turf form is on good or quicker ground and she was well below par the once on good to soft; class can still see her competitive.

steadied start, held up in behind leaders, pushed along over 2f out, soon weakened (trainer's rep said, regarding poor form shown, that the mare may have been unsuited by the Soft, good to soft in places ground on this occasion and would prefer a sounder surface)

Form & Verdict
Appreciated having a strong pace to aim at back over 6f when collecting a valuable Chelmsford handicap in July but the AW is more his scene and he's since made it 1-15 on grass by finishing last in the Great St Wilfrid.

Seems held by Marshman on Newcastle running but may fare better with that reappearance effort under his belt and bearing in mind he has been consistent otherwise for current stable; however, yet to break his Listed/Group duck after many attempts.

Form & Verdict
Consistency is not his strong point but he does go particularly well here and won this race on good to soft two years ago; back to something approaching his very best when close up in the Group 2 Lennox here a month ago (good; also runner-up the previous season on soft) and he'll take some beating with a repeat of that form.

Form & Verdict
Enhanced his excellent strike-rate when flooring the cast-iron yardstick Oscula at Epsom (7f, good) in June but Group-race assignments have looked a step too far since then, here last time finishing adrift of Happy Power; 2lb worse off with that rival here, so he wouldn't be the obvious answer; seems to handle all conditions the same.

Not noted for his consistency but clearly likes it here having won back-to-back C&D handicaps, the latest only yesterday when edging home in a three-way finish; it's asking a lot to make a successful debut at Group level only a day later.

Form & Verdict
Did well in 7f handicaps last year before appearing to find Group/Listed assignments something of a culture shock; signs were more encouraging on her belated return at Haydock (1m Listed, good), but she was still only sixth of ten and that needs improving upon.

Has mainly struggled in Group/Listed company since winning a couple of 7f handicaps on turf in the summer of 2021; down in grade, but returns from 99 days off with something to prove; made little impact in her two previous AW outings.
