J: Christian Howarth

T: Scott Dixon

Progressive of late, despite having had plenty of racing, adding to his C&D win in May (off 9lb lower) when going in at Bath last time (off 3lb lower); there's other pace in here, however, and he'll need another career-best effort.

Gained his sixth success when winning at Brighton (6f, good to firm) in May and ran well again at Windsor (6f, good to soft) next time, but failed to beat a rival at Ffos Las ten days ago and needs to bounce back.

5 yo Colt

Form & Verdict
He'd been headed when badly hampered at Newbury recently (not recover) but was without his usual visor, in which he was running really well in defeat previously under Chloe Lyons at up to 5.2f; he should be fine at this trip; the visor returns and he could bounce back with a big run.

Front-runner who's done most winning over 5f and is generally kept to that trip; soft ground likely behind a below-par effort last time and should do better back on the AW but there's little wiggle room off this mark.

Form & Verdict
Made all at Salisbury (6f, good) in May; unplaced on next two starts but he was a close fifth of seven at Ffos Las most recently and he ran well over C&D last August on firm ground; might not be far away.

Seems to act on most ground; nine-time winner who is on a hat-trick after a brace of wins at Ffos Las (6f, good) last month; it was in his nursery days that he last scored off a mark this high, but he can't be ignored in current mood.

Triple AW winner who made all on turf at Bath (5.6f, firm) in May but his form has nosedived in two subsequent runs; now only 1lb higher than for his last success but he's hard to predict and there are other front-runners in this line-up; down the list.
