Selected odds by:

(4)

Nayef Road¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: B A Curtis| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 113| D

5/1

Likeable type who was far from disgraced when third in the Sagaro at Ascot on his return. Possibly found the race coming too quickly when last of 5 in Yorkshire Cup since. Sort to bounce back.

Form: 1223-35

(3)

Ocean Wind²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: J Mitchell| T: R A Teal| OR: 112| D

4/5

Three-time winner in 2020 who has taken his form up another notch this term, runner-up for third consecutive start when beaten length by Stradivarius in Sagaro Stakes at Ascot last month. One to beat.

Form: 111-222

(5)

Rainbow Dreamer^p¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-2| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A King| OR: 110| D

33/1

Smart gelding who bagged 2m Kempton conditions race in February. Turned in poor effort on turf though when last of 5 in Aston Park Stakes at Newbury 12 days ago. Needs to bounce back.

Form: 53-2145

(2)

Ranch Hand¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A M Balding| OR: 106| D

3/1

Smart gelding who has returned in fine form, scoring twice over 2m on AW before fourth of 5 to Al Aasy in Aston Park Stakes at Newbury (1m4f) 12 days ago. Claims back up in trip.

Form: 641-114

(1)

Lismore^p²²

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: J P Spencer| T: H De Bromhead| OR: 100| D

14/1

Useful Irish filly who posted good second of 9 in listed race (66/1) at Gowran (14f, good to soft) 22 days ago. In excellent hands but this demands plenty more.

Form: 6112-82

Forecasts

Ocean Wind (4/5), Ranch Hand (3/1), Nayef Road (5/1), Lismore (14/1), Rainbow Dreamer (33/1)

OCEAN WIND is making up into a really likeable stayer, and with no Stradivarius to deal with here, he can resume winning ways. Nayef Road wasn't himself at York but had run well behind the selection at Ascot on his return and shouldn't stay down for long. Ranch Hand could have a bigger effort in him back up in trip.
