Comment: Promising debut (good to firm) last August; bounded clear at Southwell next time and ended well on top at Kempton (again 1m4f, AW) in another novice in September; gelded since; cheekpieces all starts; dispatched some pretty useful rivals last time and looks an exciting handicap debutant.

Comment: Extremely solid sequence at about 1m2f but he comes from off the pace and has often met trouble in running; that wasn't the case at York this month on second attempt at 1m4f (first run on good to firm) and he had every chance in going down by a head; up 3lb with each-way claims.

Comment: Not all plain sailing, far from it, but she returned from more than a year off when winning a handicap at Nottingham (1m2f, heavy) in good style last October; 10lb higher today over a new trip but she has a fine pedigree and is not comfortably dismissed.

Comment: Best form came over about 1m4f on turf last summer, with two wins (York and Chepstow) and three close seconds, including at York Ebor meeting (same mark today); he's not sparked in the same way in his four races since but latest start (third of seven at Newmarket) was his best effort this term; well treated if he returns to peak form.

Comment: All five races last term were on softer than good, winning a novice at Windsor (1m, soft) in May and handicap at Leicester (1m2f, heavy) in October; gelded and raised 5lb, with a backward step when reappearing at Goodwood (1m2f, good) four weeks ago; 1m4f is interesting but lots of rain may be needed.

Comment: All turf starts have been on softer than good; won a Southwell novice last July, followed up in 1m4f handicap at Doncaster (1m4f, good to soft) and good third of 15 off this mark in valuable 1m4f race at Newmarket; he failed to live up to favouritism at Newcastle (1m4f, AW) on reappearance but wasn't disgraced and, after just six races, may still do better.

Comment: 2024 proved very disappointing, a false dawn when beaten a head at Newbury (2m, good to firm) in July off today's mark; left William Haggas for 170,000gns and made a satisfactory return when sixth of 12 in 1m4f York handicap, which he needs to build on; often tongue tied but not last time or today.

Comment: Has won on ground ranging from good to firm to heavy, but withdrawn twice this month; Newbury 1m2f has suited him particularly well, given he won there on his first two starts of 2023 and also on heavy once last September, but limited attempts beyond that (latest in 2023) did not prove his stamina.

Comment: 6f Group 2 winner as a 2yo; ran a cracker when third to Inisherin in last year's Group 1 Commonwealth Cup before his form tailed off in the second half of the season; now returns in a lower grade having had wind surgery; handles good to firm and good to soft ground, and dropping back to 5f should not inconvenience him; probably the one to beat if returning to his best.

Comment: Smart 5f/6f performer; unraced as 2yo but highly progressive in 2024, winning six of 11 starts and first home from the double-figure draws when fifth in Group 1 Abbaye at Longchamp; might have needed the run when only ninth of 11 in Group 3 Palace House at Newmarket (4-1) last month; needs to bounce back but that's certainly possible and she may still be unexposed.

Comment: Won four races for George Scott including the 2024 Palace House; finished in front of two of today's rivals in this year's running of that race, but was still some way below par in seventh; perhaps that run (his first for this yard) was needed, but he'd have a bit to find even on his peak form, and it's possible he's best in headgear.

Comment: 4-5 strike-rate in Italy last season for Endo Botti, ending on the upgrade over 1m2f in the mud with a Group 3 win at San Siro and victory by 4l going away in Group 2 at Capannelle; however, she was 50-1 and well below form in York Group 2 (1m2f, good to firm) 16 days ago on debut for new yard; her usual tongue-tie (absent last time) returns.

Comment: Inconsistent last year and below par in 6f Group 1s on latest two outings, most recently on last month's reappearance at Meydan; however, he's back up in trip and back down in grade today and is the one to beat if rediscovering last year's best form, when winning the Group 1 Lockinge (1m, good) and Group 2 Lennox (good); ran well on soft in 2023.

Comment: Improved form towards end of last season (including on soft ground) and took another step forward to win Listed race for fillies and mares at Newmarket (6f, good) four weeks ago, making significant late headway to overhaul one who landed a Listed race here next time; her trainer excels with late-maturing types and she could be even better now back up to 7f; interesting.

Comment: Ran well when fourth in two 2yo Group 3s last summer (7f, good to soft/soft); tackles her first handicap and slow ground would be a plus, but she hasn't been at the top of her game this year (Group 3/Listed).

Comment: Went close on nursery debut at Newcastle (7f, AW) last October and now 1lb lower; fair fifth at Wetherby (7f, good to firm) last month on second stable start but needs something extra today in first-time cheekpieces.

Comment: Tailed off on reappearance at Musselburgh last month and it's hard to be confident on the back of that, but she may have needed the run and a case can be made on last autumn's form on soft/heavy ground (including here); not written off if getting her preferred slow ground.

Comment: Belatedly confirmed his debut promise when running away with maiden at Windsor (1m, good to firm) on reappearance, clocking a good time in the process; he was well backed that day and looks open to further improvement now tackling a handicap; might be the answer.

Comment: 150,000gns foal; shaped well when second on debut at Kempton (7f) last summer; hasn't built on that in two runs since but he may well have needed the outing at Newmarket on reappearance in a race that has worked out nicely; open to plenty of progress now handicapping in first-time tongue-tie.

Comment: Went off big prices on his first two starts but sent off favourite twice since, justifying the support in Windsor maiden (1m, good to firm) five weeks ago; the runner-up won next time and the third ran well, giving the form some substance; may not have reached his limit and has to be respected.

Comment: Hasn't progressed since a 7f maiden win on debut last year, but he didn't fare too badly when seventh of 12 in handicap at Sandown (1m2f) five weeks ago; today's intermediate distance could suit and he's not ruled out.

Comment: Looked a work in progress last term and he has taken his form to a higher level this season, rallying to justify favouritism over 7f here (good to firm) nine days ago; the style of that win strongly suggests he'll be at least as good over 1m, something backed up by his stout pedigree; key player.
