Upwardly mobile 4yo who won prestigious events at Ascot (7f International; good) in July and Goodwood (6f Stewards' Cup; good to soft) in August; has gone up a total of 13lb on the basis of those efforts but he may have more in the tank and he wasn't beaten far in this race (good to firm) in 2024.

Won a valuable C&D handicap last summer before bolting up in the Stewards' Cup one week later; another fine course run when second of 16 in July and he was heavily supported for a Stewards' Cup repeat one week later, only to stumble leaving the stalls; wasn't far off his best over 1m here four weeks ago but this drop back to 7f still looks the right move; player.

Record of 0-7 this year but he has encouraging recent form; ties in closely with Brosay on penultimate effort and ran well, faring best of the near-side group, in the Ayr Gold Cup (6f, soft) latest; wears cheekpieces for first time on home soil; major contender.

J: Fred Daly

Gelded and underwent wind surgery after an unsuccessful stint in Bahrain over the winter; two good runs in 6f handicaps in midsummer, notably his York second in July (6f, good); only eighth back at that track two weeks ago but he stumbled leaving the stalls and then got a bump in the final furlong when still in contention for a place; missed an intended run due to soft ground as a 2yo and could probably do with it drying out.

Beaten 17 times since making a winning stable debut in the 2023 Wokingham, and although tumbling in the weights he's not looking like taking advantage; well beaten in the Stewards' Cup last time and others appeal more.

He enjoyed his finest hour over this C&D when winning the 2023 Wokingham off a 20lb higher mark; he hasn't won since and his second over C&D in May on his seasonal/stable debut hasn't been a springboard to better things; others look safer.

Having dropped down the weights he was a close second at Ascot (6f, good) in May on his stable/seasonal debut, and perhaps the soft ground didn't suit at Epsom last time; not written off but this 8yo has been regressive and remains without a win since June 2023.

Ran his best race when keeping on for fourth of 24 in the Palace Of Holyroodhouse at Royal Ascot three weeks ago (5f, good to firm; cheekpieces first time); looked ready for the return to 6f on that occasion but is perhaps vulnerable to a few lurking further down the weights.
