Form & Verdict
Contested Group races after winning a novice on his second start as a 2yo, his best effort when just beaten in a Group 3 at Goodwood (1m good to firm) in July; well held in a Listed contest at Lingfield (1m2f, Polytrack) 16 days ago and this trip should suit him better, but he has a bit to find against some less-exposed types; cheekpieces given a go.

Seen only twice, both times on AW, last term for new yard; made a winning reappearance off current mark in this contest (on good ground) two years ago on first start during a brief spell with Charlie Fellowes; fighting chance in repeat bid, assuming he's in top form.

T: Tom Clover

Just 1lb higher than for his Victoria Cup win last term (first run for Charlie Fellowes); midfield at Royal Ascot (Group 1) one month later; absent since a disappointing run on soft ground last September; cheekpieces worn on his last 11 starts are left off on today's stable debut (same owners); interesting, especially if backed.

J: James Doyle

T: Charlie Fellowes

Has form on all types of ground; gelded prior to his Victoria Cup success over C&D on stable/seasonal debut, getting up in the final strides; got going too late in 6f Group 1 at Royal Ascot on only start since; still on a workable mark and warrants respect returned to a 7f handicap.

Form & Verdict
Lightly raced 5yo whose record on the AW reads 121, his latest success coming in another Listed event at Wolverhampton (7f, Tapeta) in March; that form worked out well (Highfield Princess was back in fifth) and although not seen since, he does have a fine record fresh; major player.

Lightly raced for his age and proved better than ever last year, notably when winning a Listed race at Wolverhampton in March (7f); found the drop to tonight's trip against him last time and an easy 6f in a small field again doesn't strike as ideal.

J: Jack Mitchell

T: Roger Varian

Lightly raced 5yo who landed a Listed event here (7f) in March and may have needed the run on his first start since when second of four in another Listed race at Kempton (1m, Polytrack) four weeks ago; has the ability but takes on some established sprinters on this first attempt down at 6f.

Form & Verdict
Has had just the two starts, making a winning debut at Newmarket (1m, good) in October of last year and going down by a short head to Westover in the Group 3 bet365 Classic Trial at Sandown (1m2f, good) in April; retains plenty of untapped potential, but not sure the return to this trip in what may become a tactical affair will play to his strengths.

Handicap debutant who is unlikely to defy top weight judged on 2025 efforts; however, very useful on his day and he's is on a handy mark based on the pick of his Listed/Group form.

Ran respectably in Listed race here (1m2f, good; more to prove on softer) on penultimate start, a race won by Liberty Lane; made it 0-10 since debut win when last of six in Listed race at Sandown four weeks ago, which he needs to bounce back from; others appear to have the edge.

Highly tried after his successful 2yo debut but wasn't disgraced, twice making the frame at Group 2 level; had been gelded and undergone wind surgery prior to making a successful return from over a year off in a 0-105 handicap at Lingfield (7f, Polytrack; first-time cheekpieces) last month; won that race with more in hand than the neck margin would suggest and much respected.

Very useful 2yo; off the track for over a year prior to a cosy success in a 7f handicap at Lingfield in October; looked set to take higher rank after that win but he was disappointing in a 1m Listed event at Kempton in November; can take a strong hold so the addition of a hood could help; the Lingfield promise isn't easily forgotten and a revival could be on the cards.
