Form & Verdict
8yo who can be in and out but he won at Leicester (6f, good to firm) in April and has run well in defeat on his last two starts, at Epsom (6f, soft) and Newcastle (6f, AW); he was a close second of 14 last time and this C&D winner can be in the mix if he's once more on a going day.

J: Seamie Heffernan

Ten career wins include 2023 Scurry Handicap here and has added lesser events this year at Leicester and Hamilton, also Epsom fourth to Sondad on soft; not as same level at Goodwood latest but not one to dismiss.

Form & Verdict
Unraced on turf this year and his best form has come on AW; however, he has a lower mark on grass and was third in a Listed race at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) last August; capable of playing a leading role.

J: Saffie Osborne

T: Jack Channon

Smart operator on AW and although his turf form lags slightly behind, his second at Hamilton (6f, good to firm) in July was a cracking effort; ran poorly in the Stewards' Cup five weeks ago and he's 2lb higher today; unwise to rule him out at a track he has run well at in the past.

J: Callum Rodriguez

Best known for his AW exploits but he is fine on turf and has a lower mark in this sphere; went desperately close at Hamilton (6f, good to firm) 15 days ago, a race in which the first two pulled clear in the closing stages from a subsequent winner; 2lb ahead of the handicapper and he was successful on his only visit to Goodwood; interesting.

Form & Verdict
10yo who is winless since August 2024 and needs to improve upon his last few performances; however, he's a nine-time course winner, including this race in 2024, and his reduced mark appeals on form as recent as this May; not discounted.

Multiple course wins and he was a close third of 11 over this C&D (good to soft) in August; well below best in two starts since, in first-time cheekpieces in the Bronze Cup at Ayr on Friday, but he's hard to rule out back on this track; further rain probably not helpful though.

Well beaten at Newmarket last month (7f, good; has won at that trip in the past) but he failed to settle and didn't look at home on the track; prior to that he kept on strongly to go very close at Musselburgh (5f, soft) on his stable debut and he remains one to be interested in.

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.

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.

Reappeared with a win at Catterick (6f, good) in April and then made all at Epsom (6f, good) this month; his stable is a dab hand when it comes to older horses progressing through the ranks and, with the Epsom form having been franked, a 3lb rise could prove lenient for this thriving 5yo.

Began this season with two wins, latterly when holding on by a short head to make all over C&D (good) in early July; probably doesn't have much margin for error off current mark but returns here after a respectable eighth of 26 at Glorious Goodwood (6f, good to firm) two weeks ago.

Heroic sprinter down the years, winning the Stewards' Cup at Goodwood in 2021 (soft) and 2022, and runner-up in the Gold Cup as a 5yo; harder to place now but was checked in his run at York in July and was a creditable third at Ripon after; not so good in a small field at Thirsk since but this type of race suits him better; refitted blinkers replace cheekpieces.

His last success was three years ago, but he was a Group 3 winner in his prime and he ran well to finish third off this reduced mark at Ripon (6f, good) last month; could be dangerous if he can back that up and two of his wins have come over C&D.
