9/1
5/1, sixth of 9 in handicap at Windsor (10f, good to firm) 45 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Fine AW strike rate (6-15) and respected on debut for new yard, but more needed off this mark.

4/1
Below form seventh of 12 in handicap at Meydan (7f, 7/2) on latest start. Off 18 months ahead of this debut for new connections and interesting to see what the market has to say.

3/1
Temperamental sort. 40/1, ninth of 12 in handicap at Ascot (12f, good to firm) 19 days ago. 2 lb lower now, drop back in trip no bad thing and he's not discounted, despite his foibles.

18/5
9/1, sixth of 8 in minor event at Newcastle (16.2f) last December, finding little. Absent since, but will be a danger to all back down in trip here if fully tuned-up.

Last of 8 in handicap at Goodwood (7f, good to firm, 14/1) 26 days ago. Significantly up in trip for this polytrack debut and needs to get back on track.

PROTECTED GUEST admittedly comes with risks attached, but he wasn't beaten at all far when ninth in a strong 1½m Ascot handicap recently and may be worth chancing back down in trip here off a 2 lb lower mark. El Ghazwani's current mark looks tough, while Gold Town's lengthy absence is a worry and Homespin has a fair bit to prove. As such, Infrastructure and Gifts of Gold rate the main dangers.
