Azano^t¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: Oisin Murphy| T: D O'Meara| OR: 101| D

9/2

Smart performer for John Gosden and Francis-Henri Graffard. Respectable start for new yard when third at Thirsk 2 weeks ago and entitled to come on for that.

Form: 05/268-3

(7)

Tinto¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: K Shoemark| T: Mrs A J Perrett| OR: 98

11/1

Useful gelding who caught the eye from an unpromising position at Lingfield in February but has been a little disappointing subsequently.

Form: 7-45796

(4)

Magical Wish¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Thore Hammer-Hansen⁽³⁾| T: R Hannon| OR: 96| D

17/2

Returned with a respectable seventh at Lingfield but failed to build on that at Newmarket 11 days later. However, runner-up twice over C&D last season and fairly weighted on those efforts.

Form: 6582-70

(3)

Willie John^p1¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: Tom Dascombe| OR: 96| D

40/1

Useful sort who posted a good fourth in Golden Mile Handicap here (1m) in July. Failed to build on that promise next time, though, and low-key start for new yard at Newmarket on return. Headgear on.

Form: 05/040-0

Kimifive²⁰³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-1| J: Cieren Fallon| T: J Tuite| OR: 92| CD

8/1

Last win came in this race 2 years ago but plenty of good efforts in defeat since, including when just edged out in Stewards' Cup over 6f here. Off 6 months.

Form: 620450-

Fred¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-8| J: J Fanning| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 85| D

8/1

Dual winner of 7f AW handicaps earlier this year and bounced back to make a winning return to turf at Brighton 2 weeks ago, again making all. Dangerous if able to dominate again.

Form: 711891

(2)

King's Knight²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-7| J: Marco Ghiani⁽³⁾| T: C Hills| OR: 84| D

11/8

Lightly-raced winner. Improved to make a winning return with a bit in hand at Lingfield (7f, AW) last month. Still unexposed and should have more to offer.

Form: 52125-1

(1)

Tintoretto^b1³¹

Age: 6| Weight: 8-6| J: Jason Watson| T: T Ward| OR: 83| BF| D

13/2

Strong in the betting and again ran well when fourth in handicap at Kempton (8f) 31 days ago, likely to have been placed again had he enjoyed the rub of the green. Change of headgear and back on turf.

Form: 7-23234

Forecasts

King's Knight (11/8), Azano (9/2), Tintoretto (13/2), Kimifive (8/1), Fred (8/1), Magical Wish (17/2), Tinto (11/1), Willie John (40/1)

KING'S KNIGHT improved to make a winning return at Lingfield and has the size and pedigree to go on again. Azano made a respectable start for this yard at Thirsk 2 weeks ago and can make his presence felt back down in class, while Fred is a player if allowed to dictate.
