C&D winner. Two wins from 5 runs last year. 5/2, bit below form third of 9 in handicap at this course (7f) 14 days ago. No reason why he won't give another good account.

Latest win at Kempton (6f) in October. Good second of 9 in handicap (16/1) at this course (7f) 14 days ago. Return to this 1f shorter trip a likely plus.

Winless since his debut back in 2017 over 6f. Plenty of solid efforts in defeat in recent years but he was below his best on his most recent outing over 7f.

11/2, stepped up on recent efforts when when winning 8-runner handicap at this C&D 28 days ago. Merits respect from 4 lb higher mark with a repeat.

Enjoyed a fine 2019 for Kevin Ryan, winning 5, 6f turf handicaps. Good placed efforts both starts on these shores last winter and he's the type to come forward for October's Jebel Ali return.

Lightly-raced winner who didn't go on as expected for John Gosden, well held in big-field Goodwood handicap (7f) in July. Has joined another excellent yard and he may yet get back on the up.

This looks wide open but DESERT DOCTOR arrives having run right up to his best when runner-up over 7f two weeks ago and, with the drop back in trip a plus (all career wins gained at up to 6f), he's fancied to make another bold bid. Recent C&D winner Taamol, Lavaspin and Canvassed head up the list of dangers.

  1. DESERT DOCTOR (IRE)
  2. TAAMOL (IRE)
  3. LAVASPIN
