Form & Verdict
Keen-going front-runner who turned in arguably a career-best effort when a clear second at Windsor seven weeks ago (upped 2lb); having Taryn Langley (first ride for the yard) take off 5lb will help his chances of getting home over this stiffer 5f.

Front-runner who couldn't adopt those tactics after a wide trip on the AW last time; had resumed better than ever and off same mark as for his near miss at Windsor (5f, good to firm).

J: Gina Mangan

Front-runner who's resumed better than ever, backing up his Bath win with a Windsor near-miss off 1lb lower (inclined to hang left); might have been better drawn but can't be discounted for a yard that's won with four of its last five runners.

Made light of a five-month absence when making all in 5f handicap at Bath 35 days ago, holding on by a nose from The Thames Boatman; not taken lightly despite a 3lb rise.

Form & Verdict
Steady progression all summer, including in victory here (firm); has been running over 6f but should be fine with the shorter trip and another bold showing is expected.

J: William Carson

T: Tony Carroll

Four wins on extremes of going in 2025, including over C&D, but she surpassed them all in form terms when just losing out in a Listed race at Bath in April; had a rough ride from the handicapper as a result and she's found it all too much since; up against it.

Won three sprints last year on extremes of going; however, a near-miss at Listed level in April put paid to her handicap mark and others look better treated.

Form & Verdict
Clicked this summer, despite having had plenty of racing already, and had something in hand when completing the hat-trick last month; a 9lb rise looks plenty, though, and will test him tonight.

Completed a sprint hat-trick last summer and he has repeated the feat this time around, coming here on the back of wins at Ayr, Beverley and Thirsk; up 4lb as he bids for the four-timer; should be in the thick of it again.

Won three in a row last season and he's got back on the scoresheet with wins at Ayr (6f) and Beverley (5f, both on good to firm) in his last two starts; has a penalty for his last success but that was a personal best and he's a big player in this hat-trick bid.

Longstanding maiden who's been turned over at 4-1 or shorter six times already this year; consistent enough and it will drop right eventually but others are more convincing.

Not at her best in a Class 3 at Windsor last month but that was 6f and this drop back in trip should help; wouldn't look to have much wiggle room off this mark though.

Consistent filly who is going from strength to strength this year, comfortably seeing off five rivals in a Class 4 fillies' handicap at Bath last month; a 7lb rise in a stronger race demands another step forward.
