Selected odds by:
Highly tried since making a winning juvenile debut, and ran up to his best when third to Calyx at Ascot on his return. No impact since, but this is obviously easier than the Commonwealth Cup he contested last time, so may do better.
Won on stable debut at Wolverhampton, and improved further when landing a C&D handicap at the July Meeting from Moss Gill. A 5lb rise is fair, and he looks likely to take the beating once more.
Placed in three juvenile starts, including when beaten two short-heads by subsequent Greenham winner Mohaather. Made a winning return/handicap debut at Ascot recently, and and has strong claims assuming rain holds off (NR due to soft ground in May.
Goodwood novice winner in May and has been steadily improving since. Put up a career-best effort when winning at Haydock last time, but this looks harder, and he needs to pull out extra.
Hasn't won since landing back to back races over a year ago and yet to score in handicap company. Not beaten all that far when eleventh of 20 behind Pass The Vino over C&D last time, but hard to back him on that showing.
Won at Doncaster in June when visored for the first time, and improved further when an unlucky fourth behind Pass The Vino in a big-field handicap here last month. Has a 5lb pull for that defeat, and not taken lightly.
Won a sales race here last autumn, and finished second at Wetherby in May. Not disgraced since, but has stopped improving, and others now look better treated.
Consistent performer without winning this year, including when second of five behind Aplomb at Nottingham. Held every chance when third at Yarmouth last time, and others have stronger credentials.
Two wins this year have come at up to 1m1½f, and he was back to form when third over 7f at Sandown behind Make A Wish. Needs to improve for the drop back in trip to score, but that does look an interesting ploy given he travels strongly.
Best effort in handicaps when winning off 5lb lower at Windsor last month. Bit too free last time at Kempton, and could get back on track, but needs to produce a career best to win here.
Forecasts
Swindler (5/2), Dominus (4/1), Pass The Vino (11/2), Revolutionise (6/1), Princess Power (8/1), Konchek (11/1), Kinks (12/1), Lorton (16/1), Cristal Breeze (18/1), James Watt (25/1)
Swindler would have a big chance if the ground remained on the quick side, but rain is a worry, and preference is for recent C&D winner PASS THE VINO, who is entitled to improve given that was his first handicap. Princess Power was a rather unlucky fourth that day, and has claims on revised terms.
