J: George Wood

T: Richard Spencer

Finished fourth behind stablemate Two Tribes in this race 12 months ago when 8lb lower and enjoyed his finest hour when making most to win the Ayr Gold Cup (6f, soft) last September; successful in Dubai early in the year and although his results have been mixed since returning to Britain, he retains plenty of ability; down the field over 5f here on Tuesday when a change of tactics failed to bear fruit; better can be expected today.

Made all in last season's Ayr Gold Cup (6f, soft) and competes off the same mark here after taking Toby Moore's claim into account; won over 5f at Meydan during the winter and gave it a good shot last time at Ascot (5f); finished fourth in last year's Stewards' Cup so handles this track; respected.

Made all to win the Ayr Gold Cup (6f, soft) last September; good form in Dubai earlier in the year, winning a 5f handicap before a Group 3 second (6f) in February; 40-1 and well held in the Wokingham latest; others preferred for win purposes.

Improvement a possibility now handicapping but he was readily brushed aside by Apotheosis at Lingfield 19 days ago and a 6lb turnaround in the weights may not be enough to reverse the placings.

Won very easily under Billy Loughnane at Ascot (7f, soft; off 15lb lower) three weeks ago, opening his account at the fifth attempt; bred to do better still, being a brother to his stable's dual Group 1 winner Saffron Beach; one to follow.

Fine campaign last season included wins at Naas (6f, gd-yld) and Leopardstown (7.5f, good); excellent run off this mark in 1m premier handicap here (good) in June; below best when last seen at Galway in August; handles softer ground and could go well if he's fit.

Has done really well since joining current trainer this year, winning at Naas and Leopardstown (beating Fort Vega) and good second in Curragh premier handicap; fast ground may not have suited last time; cheekpieces now tried and rider's claim a positive.

Form & Verdict
Promising 7f debut at Kempton in June before winning novice events at Haydock and Lingfield (both on good ground, latterly in this combination of accessories); further progress required now handicapping but he's bred to be smart and should have more to offer.

Dual turf winner (7f, good) who won on AW at Newcastle in December, but he's not easy to predict and was beaten 11l when sixth at Lingfield (7.6f, good to firm) last month; has bit to prove again after that and he's still 6lb higher than for his last win; regular hood is removed.

Confined to 7f for all his runs and the winner of two novices on good ground; didn't get the best of runs when a 3l third at Goodwood two runs back and then raced freely with no cover at Doncaster; retains potential and probably quick enough for 6f.
