15/2
Won 5 on the bounce at Yarmouth last year and belied odds of 66/1 when making a winning reappearance at Chelmsford (7f) in April. Lost little caste in defeat when runner-up over the same C&D 7 days later and another prominent showing could be on the way.

Hit the target twice in 2022 and encouraging enough start to the present campaign fifth in a 15-runner Ascot handicap (1m, good) earlier this month. Each-way claims off the same mark here.

Bagged pair of 7f Chelmsford handicaps in December and remained in good form on AW since. Wasn't disgraced returned to turf over this C&D recently but likely to find a few too good once again. Blinkers refitted.

Dual 7f/1m winner last spring but ended 2022 on a downer and reappearance effort at Ripon was pretty low-key, even allowing for the fact that he probably needed the run.

Below par in handful of runs for two different yards in Ireland but resumed winning ways on first start since rejoining this yard (also first run since being gelded) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) recently. 3 lb rise fair enough and he's high on the list.

Has made the frame off similar marks on each of his last 3 starts, most recently finishing fourth of 7 at Doncaster (7f, heavy). Not without each-way hope but the first-time cheekpieces will need to help eke out a bit more if he's to emerge on top here.

9/2
Enjoyed a productive 2022 campaign, winning 4 times and placed on several occasions. Returned in similarly good order last month, in the money in 7f/1m handicaps at Lingfield (both on AW), and she's likely to be in the shake-up once more.

Off the mark at second attempt for present connections when landing this race 12 months ago. 3 lb lower this time round but form dipped at the end of last year may prove vulnerable back from a break.

Forecasts

Global Esteem (10/3), Makeen (9/2), Granary Queen (9/2), Royal Musketeer (13/2), Priscilla's Wish (15/2), Brasil Power (15/2), Stockpyle (15/2), Lord Rapscallion (16/1)

18:55 Newmarket - 18 May 2023 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

BRASIL POWER's spell in Ireland was largely unsuccessful but he got back on track reunited with this yard at Wolverhampton and a 3 lb rise may not be enough to prevent him from striking again. The ultra-consistent Granary Queen is likely to give another good account, a remark which also applies to Priscilla's Wish.
