Huraiz¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-1| J: J Fanning| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 90| D

9/1

Sepoy colt, 2-2 to date, form of debut win at Newcastle working out fine and battled on well to make all at Newmarket last time out. That form needs improving on here but he remains capable of better.

Form: 11

Lexington Rebel¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-1| J: Hollie Doyle| T: R Hannon

16/1

Had clearly learnt plenty from his Ffos Las debut when winning at Chepstow last time, still looking very green. Step back up to 6f will suit, needs plenty more on the bare form but going the right way.

Form: 41

Oh Purple Reign¹²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-1| J: S M Levey| T: R Hannon| OR: 97| D

11/4

Two wins to his name this season, has faced some stiff tasks and perhaps Ripon didn't suit him last time out (still ran okay). This is a bit easier and he has the form to win it, but he's more exposed than a few and is susceptible to an improver.

Streamline^h¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-1| J: H Crouch| T: C G Cox| OR: 99| C

9/2

Impressive winner over 5f here in August, clearing right away in the closing stages and looking very much in need of 6f. Improved on that when excellent third to useful Alligator Alley at York and with the promise of more to come, takes high rank.

Form: 113

Sun Power²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-1| J: J Mitchell| T: R Hannon| OR: 102| D

15/8

Best run to date came at Ascot in the Listed Winkfield Stakes (Oh Purple Reign 3½l away in fourth), that following excellent fourth to Pinatubo in the Chesham. Biggest question is whether the drop back to 6f is a positive but has a solid chance.

Form: 51423

Aroha²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: Jason Watson| T: B J Meehan| OR: 101

8/1

Improved plenty to finish a close third to Daahyeh in the Albany at Royal Ascot but has shown that to be no fluke, running even better in the G3 Keeneland Stakes when beaten ½l. New surface to contend with but leading chance on form.

Form: 424326

Melodic Charm²⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: David Probert| T: J Tate| D

14/1

Winner of only start, that coming at Wolverhampton last month and with the third and fifth winning since, it looks solid enough. Needs plenty more here but should improve and can make her presence felt.

Form: 1

Forecasts

Sun Power (15/8), Oh Purple Reign (11/4), Streamline (9/2), Aroha (8/1), Huraiz (9/1), Melodic Charm (14/1), Lexington Rebel (16/1)

Aroha sets the standard on her Albany third and she has run with great credit since. She has to be thereabouts but might be susceptible to an improver and to that end, STREAMLINE makes plenty of appeal. He won easily here two starts ago and then put in a much improved effort when third in a Listed event at York. This sixth furlong can see him progress again, and he can come out on top. Oh Purple Reign has been nothing if not consistent and should be thereabouts again. Sun Power possibly didn't see it out last time but all the same, the drop back to 6f isn't guaranteed to suit.
