Form & Verdict
Built on his debut to narrowly take a Class 2 novice at Hamilton (6f, good) in May; 5lb penalty for that win makes life even harder and he was down the field in a tongue-tie at Newcastle four weeks ago.

Form & Verdict
Similar form to his debut win when picking up a Sandown Listed event (5f, good; gets a 5lb penalty) for Kevin Ryan in May; bettered those efforts when fourth of ten in Group 2 Richmond at Glorious Goodwood (6f, good to firm) on his stable debut three weeks ago; left the impression he was capable of better that day and holds a future Group 1 entry; considered.

Form & Verdict
Carries a 3lb penalty for winning Class 3 Haydock novice (good to soft) in May; solid effort when third in Glorious Goodwood nursery (again 7f, good to firm) last time but that still leaves him a little short of the required standard on this drop back to 6f.

OR:

Form & Verdict
Just denied on debut and impressed with 5l win on her second start; well backed when a close second in the Albany Stakes at Royal Ascot and was then a snug odds-on winner of Curragh Group 2 just eight days later; took it up another notch with convincing win in Group 1 Phoenix Stakes (6f, good to firm) 11 days ago; has a 7lb penalty and backs up fairly quickly again but she sets a high bar.

Off the mark at the third attempt when he came nicely clear close home over 5f at Thirsk (good) 19 days ago; step back up to 6f should be no problem but that bare form needs a big chunk of improvement.

Improver; picked up a 5f Pontefract maiden (good) in April and had no problem with 6f when taking a Nottingham nursery in July; missed the break but still went on to run well when third of 18 in Glorious Goodwood nursery (again 6f, good to firm) four weeks later; holds future Group entries and he's likely better than his current mark; not ruled out.

All starts at 5f; appeared to run quite well when sixth in Sandown Listed event (good) last month and he didn't need to better that effort when opening his account at Lingfield (good to firm) three weeks later; this is a very different test.

Form & Verdict
Runner-up to a subsequent Listed winner on his debut in May and made no mistake in big-field Redcar maiden (6f, good) a fortnight later; belied an awkward head carriage to battle back and score under a penalty at Thirsk last time; has work to do on the figures but might surprise a few.

OR:

Form & Verdict
Big step up from his debut when he scampered clear to win four-runner Salisbury novice (6f, good to firm) four weeks ago; needs to improve again but it's highly unlikely we've seen the best of him and he's respected as one of three for a yard that's on a four-timer in this race.

Form & Verdict
Unbeaten colt who was 28-1 when winning on his debut at Redcar in June and he showed a good attitude when defying a penalty at Ripon (again 5f, good) one month later; this step up to 6f could unlock more and he might go well for a long way.

Form & Verdict
Made all to win 12-runner Windsor maiden on his introduction in May and he followed up under a penalty at Newbury (again 6f, good to firm) last month; jockey bookings suggest he's the pick of a three-pronged attack from a yard that's won this race for the last three years; respected.

Form & Verdict
Stepped forward from his debut when third of 12 at Windsor (6f, good to firm) last month; plenty to do on that bare form but yard's record in this race ensures he's not instantly dismissed and Dylan Browne McMonagle is an eyecatching jockey booking.

Form & Verdict
He finished a well-held third behind Where Love Lives on his debut at Thirsk (5f, good) in April; different story over 6f on soft ground when drawing away late to bag Ayr maiden two months ago; has some punchy future entries and, while he might already be looking for further, he's not one to rule out at likely rewarding odds.

Form & Verdict
Redcar novice winner on her debut in April who was less than 2l behind Tokaido in Chantilly Listed event (good) the following month; big run when second in another French Listed race (again 5f) 12 days ago; should stay 6f on pedigree and has solid each-way claims on that latter form.

Betting Forcast

4/1 Tokaido, 100/1 Furturra, 100/1 Mind Those Steps, 16/1 Where Love Lives, 66/1 The Bookkeeper, 5/6 Sun Goddess, 40/1 Battle Fever, 50/1 Blakes Monarch, 25/1 Glorious Game, 20/1 Innichen, 40/1 It Dunt Marra, 40/1 Kodiak Breeze, 20/1 Pride Of Toledo, 16/1 Quillan, 5/1 Satellite Of Love, 50/1 Secret Society, 50/1 Thebesthasyetocome, 40/1 Weekend Roar, 100/1 Niewiadoma, 33/1 Rollthedicebaby, 40/1 Speed Of Sound, 20/1 Vollering

Verdict

Most of these have yet to encounter soft ground so if the forecast rain arrives that will make things interesting. One runner who won't mind a downpour is Thebesthasyetocome, who could go well at a price, but as it stands it is very hard to get away from Group 1 winner SUN GODDESS, with Aidan O'Brien's filly setting a high bar as she drops into a sales race. Tokaido has been a star for Amy Murphy and he can chase the selection home, while Where Love Lives, Vollering and Clive Cox's pair Satellite Of Love and Pride Of Toledo are respected.[Richard Russell]
