1st (5) Alflaila (3/1 +14%)
Alflaila

3/1(+14%)
(5) Alflaila 3/1, Well prepared to make a successful reappearance in handicap company and displayed a sharp turn of foot when adding to tally in 8-runner listed race at Pontefract last time. Runner-up to Mighty Ulysses at Newmarket prior to that.
2
2nd (3) Finest Sound (25/1 -150%)
Finest Sound

25/1(-150%)
(3) Finest Sound 25/1, No match for Grocer Jack in listed race at Newbury but was just ahead of Cadillac having given that rival a bump (second past the post but subsequently demoted). Revved up by application of cheekpieces and a change of tactics when winning 3-runner minor event at Thirsk (7f).
3
3rd (4) Marie's Diamond (18/1 +64%)
Marie's Diamond

18/1(+64%)
(4) Marie's Diamond 18/1, Front runner who showed he's still capable of smart form when second to Alflaila in 1m Pontefract listed race in July. Upped to Group 3 company and clearly wasn't on his game at Haydock (hung right and dropped away).
4
4th (6) Masekela (28/1 -40%)
Masekela

28/1(-40%)
(6) Masekela 28/1, Listed winner at 2 who was an excellent 8-lengths fourth in the Derby at Epsom in June. Evidence of both starts since suggests he was flattered by that form and he's now dropped markedly in distance.
5th
5th (7) Mighty Ulysses (1/1 +9%)
Mighty Ulysses

1/1(+9%)
(7) Mighty Ulysses 1/1, Improving colt who gained win number 3 back in calmer waters when making all in listed company at Newmarket last month, seeing off Alflaila fairly readily.
6th
6th (1) Bashkirova (5.5/1 +39%)
Bashkirova

5.5/1(+39%)
(1) Bashkirova 5.5/1, Came a long way in a short space of time at 3 yrs, winning her first 3 starts, and resumed progress when comfortably landing the Princess Elizabeth Stakes at the Derby meeting, Shade disappointing at Ascot but given a break and could easily redume progress.
7th
7th (8) Sonny Liston (16/1 -45%)
Sonny Liston

16/1(-45%)
(8) Sonny Liston 16/1, Landed sole start at 2 yrs and stepped up without looking finished article when not beaten far in Feilden/Dee Stakes during the spring. Set a stiff task and never figured in the Derby but much more like it back it trip when third over 1m at Goodwood.

1st (13) Soulcombe (3/1 +25%)
Soulcombe

3/1(+25%)
(13) Soulcombe 3/1, Frankel gelding out of smart performer who has stepped up markedly for switch to handicaps/application of blinkers, landing small-field handicaps at Haydock/Ascot (12f). Good fourth from unpromising position at Goodwood (12f) since and unlikely he's finished progressing yet. Interesting.
2
2nd (4) Caius Chorister (10/1 -11%)
Caius Chorister

10/1(-11%)
(4) Caius Chorister 10/1, Rapid improver switched to staying handicaps, completing 5-timer with a bit to spare at Goodwood (11.2f) 3 weeks ago. Good bit more on her plate now though from career-high mark.
3
3rd (12) Adjuvant (25/1 +0%)
Adjuvant

25/1(+0%)
(12) Adjuvant 25/1, Well served by step up to 12f when resuming winning ways at Newmarket in July, leading 1f out and keeping on well. Not seen to best effect in stronger company at Goodwood (12f) subsequently and he's worth a crack at this trip on balance.
4
4th (10) Inverness (16/1 -14%)
Inverness

16/1(-14%)
(10) Inverness 16/1, Goodwood maiden winner (1m) at 2 yrs who has largely acquitted himself with credit in handicaps this term, running on for third behind Secret State at Goodwood (12f) 24 days ago. However, didn't totally convince on sole previous try at this trip.
5th
5th (6) Al Nafir (5.5/1 +0%)
Al Nafir

5.5/1(+0%)
(6) Al Nafir 5.5/1, Brother to top-class winner up to 1½m Ghaiyyath who confirmed debut promise to open account in a Kempton novice (1m) in November. Improved again conceding upwards of 10 lb all round when second on return at Newmarket (10f) and longer trip an obvious plus now handicapping. Player.
6th
6th (9) Nusret (10/1 +17%)
Nusret

10/1(+17%)
(9) Nusret 10/1, Knocked firmly on the door prior to getting off the mark in a Curragh maiden (12f) in July, noted travelling smoothly throughout. Shapes as if 1¾m will hold no fears and stable's runners always command respect.
7th
7th (5) Temporize (33/1 -18%)
Temporize

33/1(-18%)
(5) Temporize 33/1, Postponed gelding who made a very bright start to career last month, landing back-to-back novice events 11 days apart on AW/turf (at 12f). Third quick run may have come too quick on handicap bow at Newmarket latest and unlikely we've seen the best of him.
8th
8th (3) Aimeric (14/1 +13%)
Aimeric

14/1(+13%)
(3) Aimeric 14/1, Frankel colt who chased home Savvy Knight on debut at Nottingham (10.2f) prior to finishing fourth in another strong maiden at Newmarket a month later. Improved on back of 9 weeks off to open his account at Chester 1½m in July. Can do better again now handicapping.
9th
9th (11) Sheer Rocks (20/1 -11%)
Sheer Rocks

20/1(-11%)
(11) Sheer Rocks 20/1, Likeable type who overcame the run of the race to score cosily at Chester (10.3f) in July. Hard to crab his efforts in defeat since, forced to switch/lost momentum but responded well to re-take close third over 12f at Ascot 2 weeks ago. Longer trip may unlock further progress.
10th
10th (1) Wild Crusade (4/1 +33%)
Wild Crusade

4/1(+33%)
(1) Wild Crusade 4/1, Upwardly-mobile son of Dubawi who took back-to-back AW events earlier this year and having caught the eye when runner-up over 11.8f here in May, he duly stepped forward again to defeat stablemate Warren Point (boosted form next time) at Ascot (12f) in July. Interesting up in trip.
11th
11th (8) Mr Alan (50/1 +0%)
Mr Alan

50/1(+0%)
(8) Mr Alan 50/1, 1m maiden winner as a 2-y-o and better form in defeat tackling longer trips this season, staying on from off the pace when eighth in King George V handicap at the Royal Meeting in June. Longer trip needs to unlock further progress, though.
12th
12th (2) Soul Stopper (10/1 -43%)
Soul Stopper

10/1(-43%)
(2) Soul Stopper 10/1, Definite promise in trio of starts as a 2-y-o and, having been gelded, he' resumed progress to land a Salisbury maiden (12f) in June. Stepped up again to readily follow up in a Chester handicap (14.4f) last month and he's an intriguing contender here.
13th
13th (7) Savvy Knight (14/1 +13%)
Savvy Knight

14/1(+13%)
(7) Savvy Knight 14/1, Son of Caravaggio who impressed in landing first 3 starts and emerged with even more credit when fourth in King George V handicap at Royal Ascot in June, keeping on well having run a shade green. Last of 3 at Sandown (14f) since but far too soon to be writing him off.

1
1st (5) Kinross (5/1 -11%)
Kinross

5/1(-11%)
(5) Kinross 5/1, Did well last term, winning Group 2/3s over 7f, including this race. As good as ever judged on his 3 efforts in defeat this year, neck second to Sandrine in Lennox Stakes at Goodwood last time. Should go well again.
2
2nd (6) Pogo (9/1 +50%)
Pogo

9/1(+50%)
(6) Pogo 9/1, Grand servant who made all in Group 3 events at Haydock and Newmarket this summer. Not quite on his game last time but very much the type to bounce back quickly.
3
3rd (10) Sandrine (5/1 +0%)
Sandrine

5/1(+0%)
(10) Sandrine 5/1, Won her first 3 starts, notably the Albany, and the Duchess of Cambridge. Solid efforts this year prior to an improved showing to land the Lennox Stakes from Kinross last time. Makes plenty of appeal again.
4
4th (2) Art Power (8/1 +60%)
Art Power

8/1(+60%)
(2) Art Power 8/1, Quality front-running colt who looked at least as good as ever when demolishing a Group 3 field in Ireland on her penultimate outing. Then fourth in Champion Sprint Stakes at Ascot but hasn't been seen since.
5th
5th (1) Al Suhail (12/1 -20%)
Al Suhail

12/1(-20%)
(1) Al Suhail 12/1, Career best when readily winning Challenge Stakes at Newmarket on his final outing last year but sole start since came when down the field (at 4/5) at Meydan in March. Has a bit to prove for all he's talented.
6th
6th (8) Sacred (3.33/1 +5%)
Sacred

3.33/1(+5%)
(8) Sacred 3.33/1, Classy 3-y-o, successful in the Nell Gwyn and Hungerford Stakes over this trip. Better than the result both outings this term, nearest finish when fifth at Goodwood in the Lennox Stakes last time. Big player.
7th
7th (7) Rohaan (7/1 +7%)
Rohaan

7/1(+7%)
(7) Rohaan 7/1, Back to form with a bang when landing a second successive win in the Wokingham Handicap at Royal Ascot and was far from discredited in France next time. Can get involved if the pace is strong enough.
8th
8th (9) Dr Zempf (33/1 +18%)
Dr Zempf

33/1(+18%)
(9) Dr Zempf 33/1, Smart sort who wasn't discredited at the Curragh last time but will need to up his game if he's to get involved at this level. Tongue tied.
9th
9th (4) Jumby (7/1 +13%)
Jumby

7/1(+13%)
(4) Jumby 7/1, Likeable type who gained a fifth career success in the Hungerford Stakes at Newbury a week ago and should give another good account if this race doesn't come too soon.

Quenelle D'or

66/1(+0%)
(20) Quenelle D'or 66/1, Posted a solid effort returning from 8 months off when fifth of 16 to Get Shirty in Copper Horse at Royal Ascot but unable to make any sort of impact in a Group 3 at Leopardstown 6 weeks ago. Others more obvious.
1
1st (19) Trawlerman (9/1 +44%)
Trawlerman

9/1(+44%)
(19) Trawlerman 9/1, Lightly raced 4-y-o who had excuses when down the field in competitive handicaps at Royal Ascot and Newmarket's July meeting and it all came together for him over this trip at Glorious Goodwood last month. 4 lb demands further improvement.
2
2nd (21) Alfred Boucher (8/1 +33%)
Alfred Boucher

8/1(+33%)
(21) Alfred Boucher 8/1, Another fine example of this yard's skill with stayers, comfortably winning the 2m handicap here on Wednesday. He's a player under a 4 lb penalty if coping with the quick turnaround.
3
3rd (14) Earl Of Tyrone (5/1 -25%)
Earl Of Tyrone

5/1(-25%)
(14) Earl Of Tyrone 5/1, Big improver for this yard, completing a hat-trick when seeing off Raise You by 1¼ lengths in 12.5f Limerick listed race in June. Seemingly saved for this since and his yard continues in very good form. Big player.
4
4th (6) John Leeper (28/1 -75%)
John Leeper

28/1(-75%)
(6) John Leeper 28/1, Smart colt who has come up short at listed/minor pattern level this season and suspicion he'll also find a few too strong now moving into handicap company for the first time.
5th
5th (1) Get Shirty (16/1 +11%)
Get Shirty

16/1(+11%)
(1) Get Shirty 16/1, Much improved for current yard, winning Copper Horse at Royal Ascot and Old Newton Cup at Haydock on his last 2 outings. Dangerous to rule out further progress but he'll need a very smart effort to defy this mark and he's been allotted the outside stall.
6th
6th (5) Ever Present (16/1 -14%)
Ever Present

16/1(-14%)
(5) Ever Present 16/1, May have needed the run after 10 months off when fourth on his Down Royal reappearance in July and he was a big improver on the Flat in 2021, winning 3 of his 4 starts. No surprise were he to resume his progression here.
7th
7th (17) Euchen Glen (12/1 +0%)
Euchen Glen

12/1(+0%)
(17) Euchen Glen 12/1, Veteran who has been a tremendous servant to connections and he ran up to his recent best when third of 13 over 1¾m at Goodwood last time. Big-field handicaps tend to bring out the best of him (former winner of John Smith's Cup here).
8th
8th (10) Shanroe (50/1 -127%)
Shanroe

50/1(-127%)
(10) Shanroe 50/1, Useful over hurdles and on the Flat. Didn't need to be at best to make a winning reapperance in a Galway conditions event last month but it sets him up nicely for a second attempt at this race (fourth 12 months ago).
9th
9th (8) Global Storm (25/1 +0%)
Global Storm

25/1(+0%)
(8) Global Storm 25/1, Smart performer who was a game winner in handicap company at Meydan in February and has run creditably in defeat since, finishing fourth in Goodwood Group 3 on latest. Likely to give his running again.
10th
10th (12) Candleford (7/1 +42%)
Candleford

7/1(+42%)
(12) Candleford 7/1, Progressive throughout last year and took another sizeable step forward when easily landing Duke of Edinburgh at Royal Ascot on his reappearance. May have found run coming bit soon when only midfield over 1¾m at Newmarket 3 weeks later. One of 2 strong contenders for yard.
11th
11th (4) Fancy Man (33/1 +50%)
Fancy Man

33/1(+50%)
(4) Fancy Man 33/1, Smart colt who was value for extra when landing Winter Derby Trial at Lingfield in February. Has run 2 crackers back on turf when fifth of 17 in Old Newton Cup at Haydock and third in Goodwood Group 3. Reopposing trio Global Storm, John Leeper and Max Vega were all behind him in the latter.
12th
12th (22) Valley Forge (40/1 -43%)
Valley Forge

40/1(-43%)
(22) Valley Forge 40/1, Struck in the Melrose on this day last year. Landed another nice prize at Hyadock (2m) in May and bit better than result in Northumberland Plate and Glorious Goodwood handicap since.
13th
13th (9) Rodrigo Diaz (40/1 -21%)
Rodrigo Diaz

40/1(-21%)
(9) Rodrigo Diaz 40/1, Smart performer who has been placed in Group 3 and listed events over 2m at Sandown since being equipped with a tongue tie. More will be needed if he's to come out on top here, though.
14th
14th (2) Enemy (33/1 -83%)
Enemy

33/1(-83%)
(2) Enemy 33/1, Another who has improved for the switch to the Ian Williams stable, bagging a nice prize at Musselburgh over Easter and close third in Group 3 Sagaro at Ascot next time. Found the Goodwood Cup too hot to handle latest and this isn't much easier under his big weight.
15th
15th (7) Okita Soushi (14/1 -40%)
Okita Soushi

14/1(-40%)
(7) Okita Soushi 14/1, Just a maiden win to his name but he has posted some smart efforts in defeat, notably when 2 lengths third of 16 to Get Shirty in Copper Horse at Royal Ascot in June. Enjoys a 9 lb swing in the weights with David O'Meara's charge here and he's one to consider despite being drawn wider than ideal.
16th
16th (13) Licence (25/1 -108%)
Licence

25/1(-108%)
(13) Licence 25/1, Low-mileage sort who made a winning debut at Gowran last summer and has shown useful form in defeat since, 5¾ lengths fourth of 8 to Gear Up in 1½m Group 3 at Leopardstown 16 days ago. Very much unexposed for yard which won this in 2019.
17th
17th (3) Max Vega (66/1 -136%)
Max Vega

66/1(-136%)
(3) Max Vega 66/1, Failed to win at 3 or 4 yrs but emphatically put it right on reappearance in the John Porter at Newbury in April. Respectable 5 lengths sixth of 8 to Rebel's Romance in Glorious Stakes at Goodwood since but more will be needed if he's to defy such a lofty mark.
18th
18th (18) Benaud (22/1 -10%)
Benaud

22/1(-10%)
(18) Benaud 22/1, Shaping up well prior to make the most of a good opporunity in Bellewstown minor event at the end of June. One of 2 runners for his much-respected stable. Yet another who can't be discounted.
19th
19th (11) Raymond Tusk (50/1 -79%)
Raymond Tusk

50/1(-79%)
(11) Raymond Tusk 50/1, Fourth in this in 2019. Doncaster conditions event win in March shows he's still capable of smart form but he's found a few of today's rivals too strong for him in Copper Horse and Old Newton Cup on his last 2 outings.
20th
20th (15) Gaassee (4/1 +53%)
Gaassee

4/1(+53%)
(15) Gaassee 4/1, Highly progressive colt who made it 4 wins in a row when taking a 1½m handicap at the Dante meeting here in May. Had his winning run ended when 1½ lengths third of 17 to Get Shirty in Old Newton Cup at Haydock but he would have gone closer had he got in the clear sooner. 1¾m should suit. Player.

Summerghand

7.5/1(-7%)
(13) Summerghand 7.5/1, It's now eleven runs since his last win in 2021 but he is knocking on the door, first home in far-side group when fourth in Great St Wilfrid at Ripon a week ago. Merits serious consideration from a reduced mark.
2
2nd (1) Commanche Falls (16/1 -33%)
Commanche Falls

16/1(-33%)
(1) Commanche Falls 16/1, Proved himself to be better than ever when landing Stewards' Cup at Goodwood for second year running by short head from Tabdeed. Has a career-high mark to overcome but really game sort who is still lightly raced this term. Firmly in the picture.
3
3rd (12) Silver Samurai (11/1 +8%)
Silver Samurai

11/1(+8%)
(12) Silver Samurai 11/1, Vastly improved since dropped back to 6f, impressively landing handicaps at Newbury and Haydock. Not seen to best effect both starts since, running-on seventh over C&D after a very slow start last time. He should have a say in this.
4
4th (18) Ghathanfar (14/1 +22%)
Ghathanfar

14/1(+22%)
(18) Ghathanfar 14/1, In top form in 2022, winning for a third time in 5f handicap here in July. Posted another solid effort when seventh back here only three days ago. Visor replaces cheekpieces and he's shortlisted.
5th
5th (3) Mr Wagyu (11/1 +8%)
Mr Wagyu

11/1(+8%)
(3) Mr Wagyu 11/1, Most likeable sprinter who has bagged 6f handicaps at Epsom and the Curragh this term. Not disgraced under a 6 lb penalty when tenth of 28 to Commanche Falls in Stewards' Cup at Goodwood so this C&D winner is in the picture off a 2 lb lower mark here.
6th

Lethal Levi

12/1(+33%)
(14) Lethal Levi 12/1, Enjoying a fine season and he took another step forward when landing 6f Newmarket handicap in July. Only ninth at Goodwood 21 days ago but raced wide after a slow start and well worth another chance.
7th
7th (9) Gulliver (28/1 -12%)
Gulliver

28/1(-12%)
(9) Gulliver 28/1, C&D winner who wasn't disgraced when thirteenth of 28 to Commanche Falls in Stewards' Cup at Goodwood. Tongue strap/cheekpieces back on and no forlorn hope off an easing mark.
8th
8th (17) Tinto (16/1 +0%)
Tinto

16/1(+0%)
(17) Tinto 16/1, In excellent form for his current yard this term, scoring twice over 6f, and he posted another very good effort when fifth of 28 to Commanche Falls in Stewards' Cup at Goodwood 21 days ago. Considered off the same mark.
9th
9th (6) Lampang (28/1 -40%)
Lampang

28/1(-40%)
(6) Lampang 28/1, Gelded and in fine form this term, bagging 6f handicaps at Ayr and Pontefract, before good third in 5f Ascot handicap a fortnight ago. He ought to be competitive again eased 1 lb.
10th
10th (16) Spangled Mac (8/1 +11%)
Spangled Mac

8/1(+11%)
(16) Spangled Mac 8/1, Thriving on racing and he completed a remarkable 4-timer inside 15 days at Yarmouth in July. Took his form up another level when clear second in 6f Ascot handicap last time and must be considered again.
11th
11th (2) Tabdeed (12/1 -9%)
Tabdeed

12/1(-9%)
(2) Tabdeed 12/1, Winless since 2020 but he went down by only a short head to Commanche Falls in Stewards' Cup at Goodwood when forced to switch over 1f out. Cheekpieces go on now and he's not taken lightly despite taking a 5 lb rise.
12th
12th (15) Royal Scimitar (40/1 +0%)
Royal Scimitar

(15) Royal Scimitar 40/1, Useful sprinter at his best but winless since his debut in 2020. Returns from 11 months off here and this is no easy comeback.
13th

Regional

9/1(-20%)

(10) Mums Tipple 4.5/1, C&D winner who ended a long losing run from a career-low mark in 5-runner handicap at Newmarket (6f) 7 days ago. Up 6 lb and this demands more so others appeal more.
15th
15th (11) Good Eye (25/1 +24%)
Good Eye

25/1(+24%)
(11) Good Eye 25/1, Useful Swedish sprinter who ran a blinder from the front when fourth in Stewards' Cup at Goodwood. Not seen to best effect when tenth over 5f here since and no surprise to see him bounce back.
16th
16th (7) Lord Of The Lodge (50/1 +0%)
Lord Of The Lodge

Treasure Trove

4/1(+0%)
(10) Treasure Trove 4/1, Overcame unfavourable circumstances to land an overdue victory with plenty to spare at Down Royal (5f) in June. Showed improved form when narrowly denied in a listed event at the Curragh last week and ought to give another good account.

Rocket Rodney

1.5/1(+14%)
(1) Rocket Rodney 1.5/1, Confirmed the useful level of form he showed in the Windsor Castle when doubling his tally in Sandown listed event in early July. Had no answer to an unexposed rival in the Molecomb Stakes at Goodwood last time but still beat the rest comfortably and sets the standard.

5.5/1(+31%)
(2) Bolt Action 5.5/1, Looked a good prospect when making a winning start in a 6-runner novice at Leicester in May and has acquitted himself well both starts since, including when third in a good-quality nursery at Goodwood (6f) 22 days ago. Capable of better still.

4th (4) Looking For Lynda (16/1 +27%)
Looking For Lynda

16/1(+27%)
(4) Looking For Lynda 16/1, Confirmed the improvement shown in the Molecomb as he picked up a second career success in 3-runner minor event at Musselburgh (5f, good) 15 days ago, finding extra. More required back up in grade.
5th
5th (5) Rousing Encore (6/1 -9%)
Rousing Encore

6/1(-9%)
(5) Rousing Encore 6/1, Useful dual winner who matched his Coventry form when fifth of 24 in a valuable sales event at Naas (5.9f) 19 days ago. Could benefit from a return to the minimum trip and not taken lightly.
6th
6th (6) Squealer (40/1 +50%)
Squealer

40/1(+50%)
(6) Squealer 40/1, Mehmas gelding who was well backed and ran to a fair level first time up when third in a 5f novice at Ripon 12 days ago. This is a big ask on just his second start but he's open to improvement.
7th
7th (8) Thunder Moor (20/1 +9%)
Thunder Moor

20/1(+9%)
(8) Thunder Moor 20/1, Dandy Man colt. Much improved from debut (well backed, proved far too green) when winning a C&D novice with a bit in hand in May. However, limitations rather exposed in better company since. More needed.
7th
7th (7) Swift Asset (28/1 -27%)
Swift Asset

28/1(-27%)
(7) Swift Asset 28/1, Readily off the mark in a 5f Windsor maiden in June and has shaped better than the bare result both starts since, including in the Richmond Stakes at Goodwood last time. Retains potential.
9th
9th (3) Brave Nation (11/1 -38%)
Brave Nation

11/1(-38%)
(3) Brave Nation 11/1, 57,000 gns Sioux Nation colt who made all in good style in 5f Doncaster maiden on debut in April. Much better than the result when fourth in a messy Norfolk but ran poorly in the July Stakes at Newmarket last time. Drops back to the minimum trip and needs to bounce back.

1st (8) Phantom Flight (3/1 -9%)
Phantom Flight

3/1(-9%)
(8) Phantom Flight 3/1, Improved with each outing for up-and-coming yard, second on debut at Newcastle prior to landing back-to-back turf novice contests (at 1m). As expected had no issue with the longer trip when third on handicap bow at Newmarket last month and he hasn't yet shown all he can.

2nd (6) Spirit Dancer (4/1 +11%)
Spirit Dancer

4/1(+11%)
(6) Spirit Dancer 4/1, Has returned an improved model this year, building on his promising John Smith's Cup effort to open his account for the season over C&D just over 4 weeks ago. This more competitive but he has to remain of interest up 4 lb.
3
3rd (13) Geremia (28/1 +15%)
Geremia

28/1(+15%)
(13) Geremia 28/1, Is going through a good spell at present, runner-up over 2m here last month before spoiling his chance with an even tardier start than normal at Doncaster 16 days ago, not beaten that far in ninth place. Should go well once again.

4th (14) Oneforthegutter (33/1 +18%)
Oneforthegutter

33/1(+18%)
(14) Oneforthegutter 33/1, More encouraging signs when mid-field on handicap debut at Epsom in June but beaten a fair way on both subsequent starts. Hopes pinned on this significant step back up in trip sparking a revival.
5th
5th (1) Soto Sizzler (33/1 -32%)
Soto Sizzler

33/1(-32%)
(1) Soto Sizzler 33/1, Enhanced excellent record at Epsom when landing 1¼m handicap in April. Good second back there at the Derby meeting but not at best on both subsequent starts, 7 lengths fifteenth to Forest Falcon at Glorious Goodwood on latest. Stable won this race last year.
6th
6th (3) Lucander (11/1 -22%)
Lucander

11/1(-22%)
(3) Lucander 11/1, Won this corresponding event in 2020 and fourth last year. Stepped up plenty on return to score eased in class at Windsor (10f) in May and having wasted no time getting back on track returned to this track last month, he should be in the mix once again.
7th
7th (5) Chichester (28/1 -12%)
Chichester

28/1(-12%)
(5) Chichester 28/1, Won 3 times last year but hasn't really kicked on from his reappearance third in a listed event at Kempton, not ideally placed the way the race developed when third at Doncaster 3 weeks ago. Mark eases 3 lb but percentage call is to look elsewhere.
8th
8th (12) Cockalorum (14/1 -17%)
Cockalorum

14/1(-17%)
(12) Cockalorum 14/1, Consistent performer who is now twelve runs since his last success. Ran creditably having been given more of a break when seventh at Doncaster earlier this month and he's lurking on a handy mark having been third in this last year from 12 lb higher.
9th
9th (11) Piecederesistance (12/1 +45%)
Piecederesistance

12/1(+45%)
(11) Piecederesistance 12/1, Fairly useful in France for Andre Fabre and confirmed the promise of his Flat debut for this yard when scoring at Pontefract last month, finding plenty to hold off the persistent runner-up having led early in straight. This much tougher but he's still relatively unexposed.
10th
10th (7) Caradoc (10/1 -18%)
Caradoc

10/1(-18%)
(7) Caradoc 10/1, Hasn't won since 2019 but has shaped better than the result on multiple occasions. However excuses were hard to come by at Glorious Goodwood last time and while he's proving expensive to follow, he's lurking on a handy mark if getting the breaks.
11th
11th (9) Special Envoy (3/1 +14%)
Special Envoy

3/1(+14%)
(9) Special Envoy 3/1, Built on debut promise to open his account at Windsor in June and resumed winning ways switched to a handicap back there just under 4 weeks ago, well positioned and scoring with a bit up his sleeve. This tougher but it remains early days and he couldn't be in better hands.
12th
12th (2) Forest Falcon (16/1 -45%)
Forest Falcon

16/1(-45%)
(2) Forest Falcon 16/1, Won Zetland Gold Cup at Redcar in June and posted a career-best effort in the opening race of Glorious Goodwood last month. Unable to repeat that effort there 4 days later (far too involved in setting the strong pace to last home) so likely he will bounce back here.

About U.K Horse Racing

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.

There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.

The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.

Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
