Rattled off a hat-trick back in 2015 but not won since and unplaced on each of his last seven starts. Minor signs of a return to form last time but still ahead of his last winning mark and others are more appealing.

Used as a pacemaker in the Queen Anne Stakes at Royal Ascot on first start for this yard and finished well beaten at Newmarket back down in class last time. Working his way down to his last winning mark now but trainer has a low strike-rate at this course and he shapes as if he needs a step back up in trip.

Has won twice at Musselburgh this season but signs the hanicapper has caught up with him now and he's finished well beaten on his last two starts. Probably won't want the ground too soft here and has a bit to prove at present.

Not won since 2014 and has looked regressive since joining this yard. Some promise at Goodwood three starts back but hasn't build on that on subsequent outings and he's relying on first-time cheekpieces to help him find his form again.

Winner on debut but dropped in at deep end subsequently. Appreciated the drop in class last time out over C&D and claims if he can build on that now in what looks a slightly easier race.

Not won since debut 24 starts ago but not disgraced at Newmarket last time and dropped further in the handicap since. Sole win came on an easy surface so cant be ruled out in what looks a weak contest.

Forecasts

Sultan Baybars (11/10), Fox Trotter (5/2), Thomas Cranmer (15/2), Scottish Glen (10/1), Professor (12/1), Dutch Uncle (16/1)

Verdict

SULTAN BAYBARS will be hard to beat if turning up in the same form that saw him finish runner-up over course and distance last time. Fox Trotter could be the main danger despite a long losing run while Professor needs the cheekpieces to have the desired effect if he's to trouble the judge.
  1. Sultan Baybars
  2. Fox Trotter
  3. Professor
