Elysees Palace⁵⁵⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: L Morris| T: Sir Mark Prescott

14/1

Champs Elysees gelding out of a Machiavellian mare. Slowly in to stride on debut but plenty to like about his fourth of 10 when last seen here in September 2016. Market likely to reveal expectations on return.

Form: 4/

(10)

Aquarium¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: P J McDonald| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 80

9/4

Solid and consistent in a number of promising AW starts since debut at the turn of the year including a win at Lingfield over 1m. Capable of having his say.

Form: 312

(7)

Allegiant²²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Milly Naseb⁽⁵⁾| T: S C Williams

25/1

Promising second start of career when finishing fifth of 14 beaten 3¾L on debut for current yard following a single run for trainer Roger Charlton. Looks a long-term handicap prospect.

Form: 0-5

(3)

Capla Jaipur²²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Gabriele Malune⁽⁵⁾| T: M Botti

9/2

Sepoy colt out of an unraced half-sister to 1m Listed winner Law Of The Range and useful 7f-1m1f winner High Court Drama. Promising debut at Kempton last month and worth a market check.

Form: 8

(9)

Glorious Army¹²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: L P Keniry| T: E Walker

11/4

Declaration of War colt cost 60,000 gns as a yearling, is a half-brother to several winners, including useful 7f winner Shebella. Fifth of 10 beaten 1½L on debut when last seen in a 7f maiden at Kempton in November. Capable of a big run here.

Form: 5-

(2)

Macgregor's Pal

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: S Donohoe| T: C Fellowes

50/1

Royal Applause colt out of a First Trump mare related to multiple Flat money spinners Corporal Maddox and Save The Bees with recent Southwell winner Kingstreet Lady also in the family.

Form:

Plentyinthetanksir

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: George Bass⁽⁷⁾| T: D M Simcock

16/1

Leroidesanimaux colt out of a Hernando mare related to 5m Kentucky Derby and Dubai World Cup winner Animal Kingdom. Market likely to reveal expectations on debut.

Form:

(5)

Dillie Dallie⁸³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Hollie Doyle| T: George Scott

14/1

Breeding suggests this trip will be a minimum for her, but signs of promise on debut at Wolverhampton when staying on late to grab fourth.

Form: 4-

(4)

Evince^h²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Josephine Gordon| T: H Palmer| BF

5/1

Ran well to finish third of eight over 7f before fourth of six at Newcastle since the turn of the year. Capable of more improvement.

Form: 34

(1)

House Of Cards³⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Aaron Jones⁽³⁾| T: J Tate

50/1

Nicely bred, and is a half-sister to the useful Shepherd's Purse, who was useful as a 2-y-o himself and won on debut. Disappointing seventh of eight on debut in a Wolverhampton novice auction last month.

Form: 7

Forecasts

Aquarium (9/4), Glorious Army (11/4), Capla Jaipur (9/2), Evince (5/1), Elysees Palace (14/1), Dillie Dallie (14/1), Plentyinthetanksir (16/1), Allegiant (25/1), Macgregor's Pal (50/1), House Of Cards (50/1)

If AQUARIUM grabs an early lead here it could spell trouble for the mostly inexperienced field with the Leroidesanimaux colt possibly making all over this 7f trip. Evince who failed to build on her promising debut can improve to be the most trouble to the Mark Johnston-trained three-year-old while the returning Glorious Army can pick up minor honours.
