5/1
Beaten by 10L+ on two starts in turf auction maiden/novice events last summer and must prove himself to be far more effective on a synthetic surface if he's to have any sort of say here.

2/5
The most experienced runner in the field but also the one with the best form in the book, having gone close to breaking his maiden on two occasions and even running a big race to finish fourth in the Windsor Castle Stakes at Royal Ascot. Leading contender.

Ran no sort of race when showing all the signs of his inexperience and finishing last of all on debut at Newbury. A second placed finish at Kempton last time was much more like it, and he can go close again if proving as effective on the Tapeta.

£7,500 purchase whose pedigree is nothing to get excited about and has been gelded ahead of this debut. French Oaks winner Confidential Lady is the only relation of note, and most of them were better over further..

33/1
Has run two fair, but unremarkable raced in maidens at Chelmsford and then here over 6f. A big step forward will be needed on the basis of those runs where he has not looked a maiden winner in the making.

Hasn't been overly impressive in two starts in all-weather maidens so far, but this could prove to be a less competitive affair and she should finish much closer up this time round.

Verdict

This should go to FULL INTENTION, if only on the basis of his Windsor Castle Stakes fourth at Royal Ascot last year. That wasn't the strongest renewal of that Listed contest but he seems to be the only one of these who could even dream of performing to that standard in that sort of company, and with that in mind should take all the beating if acting on the Tapeta. Hisar could prove the biggest danger given how much better he looked last time out compared to on his tame debut last year, ahead of the similarly lightly-raced Liquid.
