Form & Verdict
Fair effort when second of five on last month's belated debut at Pontefract (1m2f, good; 33-1), albeit no match for the odds-on winner; open to improvement but this Golden Horn 4yo may want a longer trip.

Stout stayer who was placed over C&D (good) in September and opened his account at Pontefract (2m2f, soft) the following month; made a low-key reappearance last month but has possibilities if that run brought him on.

Improved as his stamina was drawn out last season, winning over 2m2f here in October (soft); below par on extremely deep ground at Nottingham when last seen 211 days ago but that is not the run to judge him on; unlikely he has reached his ceiling and he's an interesting contender.

4yo who made debut last month and has kept on for a fair fourth on both starts (1m, good); could improve for today's extra furlong and the stiff track, and can give a good account, but others have much stronger form.

Slow to find his form this season, but his keeping-on third behind Royal Blaze over C&D (good) last month was a big step back in the right direction and he might be seen to even better effect if there's a stronger pace for him to chase today; sports first-time cheekpieces; interesting.

Two wins and three seconds from his only five races; justified favouritism in a 1m3f handicap at Glorious Goodwood and launched a strong challenge for valuable handicap at Ascot (1m4f, soft) four weeks ago, drawing nearly 6l clear of the third; 1m6f now looks worth a go and he's one of the leading contenders on form.

Maiden winner who came up shy under penalties but confirmed himself progressive when justifying favouritism in a 1m3f handicap at Glorious Goodwood (good to soft); hit with a 7lb rise but that form has been franked and this colt might well have appreciably more to offer; the one to beat.

Went back-to-back at Hamilton last season (1m1f, good; maiden/handicap) and unlikely that he gave his true running when a beaten favourite at York in September (1m2f); held a Cambridgeshire entry back then and he retains plenty of potential as a 4yo, especially at this trip (dam stayed well).

A gelding operation saw him improve to win a pair of 1m3f handicaps in the spring, and following a blip he was back in form when third at Ripon (1m4f, good) on Saturday; that may suggest he's plateaued for now but he can't be readily dismissed.
