Thriving on this course this summer, and beat Lion Of Mali a neck over C&D three weeks ago; edging up the weights only slowly and should give another good account of himself.

J: Ryan Moore

T: Ed Dunlop

7f 2yo winner who kept on well to win in a small field here (6f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; this is more competitive but he did it cosily under Ryan Moore, who remains on board, and the return to 7f may be a plus.

Finished second in the corresponding race 12 months ago when rated 4lb higher; back to winning ways at Pontefract (6f, good) this month and his latest C&D third was another good run; place claims once again.

Returns to rather calmer waters after coming up well short in bigger fields at York last month; in particularly good form in June, winning at Pontefract then placed twice over C&D; could go well.

Good run of form came to a halt when 17th of 19 behind Magic Boy here 13 days ago; while he wasn't ideally drawn on that occasion, he will need a full revival to emerge victorious.

Picking up his share of prize money this season, making the frame five times either side of his Pontefract (6f, good) win last month; despite that he is still 5lb lower than when a close fourth in this race 12 months ago; each-way shout.

On a losing run but he retains plenty of ability and his latest fifth of 12 at Windsor (6f, good to firm) was another solid effort; should make another bold bid.

Over two years since the last of his five wins; shaped well at Kempton on his reappearance but he hasn't built on it in two runs since; broke out of the stalls and withdrawn when favourite for a Kempton handicap last month; well drawn to attack and he lurks on a dangerous mark.

Eight-race maiden who made the running on first three starts this term but switched to trying to come from the rear when hooded on both since; Newmarket latest (7f, good to firm; 40-1) was a positive performance as he seemed to be gathering momentum in the closing stages and was beaten just 2l in sixth of 11; dropped 2lb today and everything may well click into place soon.

It's possible that 7f on fast ground will represent his ideal conditions, and he's not had that combination in any of his four handicap starts this season; goes back up in trip today but from 2lb out of the handicap and others arrive with more pressing claims.
