Form & Verdict
Irish challenger who dead-heated in 1m Ripon handicap in June and backed it up with a solid third of 11 at Wolverhampton (7f) 15 days ago; he's very much one to consider with this return to further a plus.

J: David Egan

T: Dylan Cunha

Seen mostly at up to 1m4f, over which he delivered a telling late challenge on the other Newmarket track in May; while that looked encouraging for longer trips, his one attempt at 1m6f (on soft last July) and two at 2m (last two Northumberland Plates) saw him well beaten; that's not conclusive proof that he won't stay 1m6f but it leaves his stamina unproven.

J: Saffie Osborne

T: Dylan Cunha

Three wins at this track but he came 13th in this race last year; that was his only appearance over this long a trip and he was also below form when he had a crack at 1m6f, so he's unproven beyond 1m4f, over which he's contested his last nine starts; stamina is the big doubt.

Track regular who finished third in this race (good to soft) in 2024 and stayed on from the rear to be fourth in last year's edition; also won last season's Great Metropolitan over C&D (good) and got back in the winning groove when taking Newmarket handicap three weeks ago; latter success puts him on a career-high mark but he's unlikely to be far away.

Inconsistent and unraced on slow turf, but he ran well in two handicaps on grass in May/June and was a close second in a maiden at Newcastle (1m, AW) nine days ago; this 3yo has leading claims if at the top of his game.
