A winner at Kempton last time out at a big price, shedding his maiden tag in the process. Needs to prove that wasn't a fluke and is up 5lb but would be thereabouts with a repetition of that level of form over this longer trip.
A winner at this course on the turf in the past and ran fairly well on the AW track last time out when finishing fifth. Down 2lb and could have more to offer.
In good form recently and won over this trip at Kempton last time out when justifying favouritism. Up 5lb but has won off higher marks than this in the past and needs to be considered.
Third on the Polytrack at Chelmsford last time out and is down 1lb here. This seems to be the most suitable trip for him and he acts on the surface; holds claims.
Has a nice draw and goes well here, but has regressed since a couple of encouraging efforts at Brighton earlier in the year and hasn't been given too much assistance by the handicapper.
C&D winner who also won at Wolverhampton earlier in the year. Not at his best over longer trips of late, though, and needs a revival now.
Hasn't won since racecourse debut last summer, and has never looked particularly likely to add to that tally since. Difficult to see her turning things around now.
11-race maiden who has his first start for this yard and after a short break. Not disgraced in minor turf events and apprentice rider claims 7lb, but too risk a proposition given his record on the AW.
Listed level winner and C&D victor at his height, but looks a long way past his best now and has finished down the field in five AW 1m races so far in 2017.
19-race maiden who has shown little in his last few starts and is expected to play a similarly minor role now stepping back up to this trip.

Kafeel (11/8), Mr Mac (7/2), Gracious George (11/2), Rakematiz (8/1), Muthraab Aldaar (8/1), Runaiocht (12/1), With Approval (16/1), Spare Parts (20/1), Palace Moon (25/1), Kachess (40/1), Rising Sunshine (40/1)
KAFEEL has good record both at this course and over this trip, and when considering he has come into a good bit of form recently he looks to another live chance here having won at Kempton last time out. He's 5lb higher in the weights but has won off higher marks than this in the past and looks to be the one to be with. Gracious George may give him most to think about after a fair effort at Chelmsford last time, with Rakemitz also worth considering.
