Won three times last year in contrasting ground over 1m. Ran with credit at Sandown on return and travelled well for a long way at Newcastle last time behind Humbert. This is easier, and he has a big chance.

Better on turf than AW, and won on easy ground at Lingfield in May. Below form at Epsom last time, and finished last off this mark on most recent Polytrack outing.

Not won since March 2017, and just twice in 42 starts; consistent on the whole, though, and again not beaten far at Ascot on Friday in race won by Buzz Lightyere.

Not the force of old, but a C&D winner from 2lb lower in March, and generally running to a solid level of form since. Latest front-running third here ten days ago shows he remains in good heart.

5/2
Has failed to beat a rival on turf this season (highly tried first time), but found some improvement when fourth of 13 to Book of Dreams over C&D recently, and closely matched with Glory Awaits on that running.

Forecasts

Fastar (6/4), Sir Hamilton (5/2), The Warrior (9/2), Glory Awaits (5/1), Cape Icon (8/1), Executive Force (10/1), Black Bess (12/1)

Verdict

FASTAR travelled best in the valuable 0-105 handicap won by Humbert at Newcastle recently, and he can take advantage of this slight ease in class. Dangers abound, however, and perhaps the biggest one is Executive Force, who caught the eye behind a couple of these rivals over C&D last time, and is well handicapped on his form for another yard. Sir Hamilton was fourth in that race, but is relatively unexposed and could yet do better on this surface.
  1. Fastar
  2. Executive Force
  3. Sir Hamilton
