Beating just a nose and a neck in his last two starts, including over C&D last time out. A repetition of that level of form may be enough this time round.
Caught the eye when finishing fourth on debut at Chelmsford despite showing signs of greenness. Should have a better understanding of his job today and looks to hold leading claims.
Well-beaten on debut at Salisbury before finishing down the field in a valuable French race last time out. This is a more suitable assignment but he still needs to show more.
Denounce gelding whose dam is a half-sister to a Graded winner in the US. Little of note in the pedigree other than that and this stable doesn't have the best record with newcomers.
Beaten 10L+ in two AW novice races so far and no particular reason to see that changing on this third start.
Pour Moi colt who cost €80,000 as a yearling and is a half-brother to a few winners, including Group 1 winner Vadamos. The market should guide on debut.
Born To Sea gelding who cost 52,000gns as a yearling. Fair pedigree but possibly not as exciting on paper as stablemate Stirling Value.
Champs Elysees gelding who cost £26,000 as a yearling. First foal of a mare who won over 1m2f on the AW and could give a good account on debut.
Ran a nice race on debut here to finish third last time out, and wasn't helped by being hampered in the early stages. Could get involved if improving on that effort.
Ran better than her 100/1 price suggested she would on debut at Kempton last time, but still needs to improve markedly now switching to Tapeta.
Down the field on racecourse debut at this course last time out. Up slightly in trip but more needed on her second start.
Outran her 33/1 odds to finish third at this course last time. Steps up in trip narrowly again now and should have a say if able to run to that level again, or improve on it.

Voyager Blue (13/8), Hasanoanda (15/8), Craving (4/1), Zalshah (6/1), Jackfinbar (16/1), Yamuna River (22/1), That's So Cool (28/1), Realpolitik (33/1), Overtrumped (33/1), Stirling Value (50/1), The Wire Flyer (100/1), Mochalov (125/1), Purple Jazz (200/1)
This may well be between CRAVING and Hasanoanda. The second-named has to be respected given the way he caught the eye in finishing on debut at Chelmsford last time, but slight preference is for Simon Crisford's charge. He has practically been waiting to win a race of this nature having been beaten narrowly in two novice events here recently, including over C&D last time out. He is taken to get off the mark at the fourth time of asking, while Voyager Blue could prove third best having run fairly well at this course on debut.
