Selected odds by:
Former bumper performer who has been switched to the Flat performing well on his first two runs but finishing well beaten last time (first AW try). Now back on turf and looking vulnerable to the three-year-olds.
Looked useful when winning on his debut as a juvenile (only run so far) at Newbury (1m, good/soft), quickened well and won with plenty in hand. This looks a rather belated comeback and conditions will be quicker than on debut; classy sort.
Given an educational ride on his debut (left with plenty to do) he showed the benefit of that run on his next start (still needed experience). Both runs so far have come over this trip and may be suited by further; handicap prospect.
Second foal; half-brother to a 7f AW winner (at two) Room To Roam. Dam, maiden but a half-sister to the useful Unsinkable. Yard's runners of this type usually take a little time and best watched unless there is market confidence.
Started at a big price on her sole run so far when finishing last (of 13) in a 7f Kempton minor event earlier in the month. On that evidence it's hard to give her any chance here.
Just had the one run as a two-year -old (with Brian Meehan) at Newmarket (7f, good/firm) when not lacking in fitness to finish midfield. One run for this yard in a Leicester claimer over this trip didn't scream progress though; others appeal more.
Formerly with Richard Hughes (didn't run for him) and now makes her debut for a new yard. Makes some appeal on pedigree (half-sister to three winners) but more than likely to need this first start.

Extra Elusive (1/6), Drap D'or (6/1), Helioblu Bareliere (10/1), Malangen (20/1), Takiah (25/1), Jathi (50/1), Yaa Mous (100/1), Dream City (100/1)
Not a particularly deep race and although conditions will be different from his debut it’s hard to see past EXTRA ELUSIVE who made a taking debut as a juvenile and should have enough class to follow-up here despite the long absence. Drap D’Or has shown promise on a couple of outings but looks one more for handicaps with most of the others destined to go the same way having not shown much so far. Jathi would have to improve from his debut but comes from a good yard while Malangen and Helioblu Bareliere are two others with place claims.
