She Believes⁵⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: L P Keniry| T: S Kirk| OR: 93| C

33/1

Landed a hat-trick in 2017, the latest of those wins a 6L course win over 7f. Out of her depth in a Group 2 next time but ended the year with a respectable effort at Newmarket. Probably needed the seasonal reappearance and better expected here.

Form: 11167-4

Hateya¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: P Cosgrave| T: J R Boyle| OR: 89| D

13/2

Capitilised off her reduced mark at Lingfield in maiden company and won two of her next three starts. Often slowly away though which has to be considered a big negative over this C&D and she was well beaten off her revised mark at Ascot last time.

Form: 311618

Sayem⁶⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: L Morris| T: E Walker| OR: 81| D

33/1

Won back-to-back races over this trip at Windsor last year but she's been struggling off similar marks since. Has threatened in two outings this year and others preferred at present.

Form: 1934-08

(14)

Elizabeth Bennet¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: G Mosse| T: C Hills| OR: 89

40/1

Both her wins have come on AW and while she's been highly tried in five of her six turf starts, she hasn't looked as effective. Well beaten on seasonal return at Newmarket's July meeting and has questions to answer for now.

Form: 59168-6

Rebel Assault⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: J Fanning| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 88

10/1

Gained a third career success in Listed company at York in 2017. Has failed to place in eight subsequent starts and while she's becoming dangerously well-handicapped on old form, there's a suspicion this trip stretches her.

Form: 585643

Dance On The Day^p³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Patrick Pilley⁽³⁾| T: Tom Dascombe| OR: 88| D

25/1

Game front-runner who gained her second career success at York last time. 6lb higher in a deeper race will make things more difficult though and her draw's not ideal.

Form: 7-1241

(13)

Labrega²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: R L Moore| T: H Palmer| OR: 88| BF| D

8/1

Improved from debut when only narrowly denied at Haydock and followed up at that course next time out. Over-raced and did too much too soon at Chelmsford last time when a beaten favourite but there's a fair chance she's well-handicapped here.

Form: 6-214

(5)

Cavatina¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: D Tudhope| T: W J Haggas| OR: 87

12/1

Got her head back in front at Leicester earlier in the campaign. That form doesn't look the strongest however and she's been struggling from her revised mark since. Dropped 2lb by the handicapper and is the yard's second-string.

Form: 441367

(3)

Lady In Question³¹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: P Hanagan| T: R A Fahey| OR: 78

16/1

Her latest two wins have both come over 7f on soft ground. Running well in defeat of late and has shaped like she will get this trip on occasions. Certainly not one to put a line through.

Form: 4-14323

(15)

Move Swiftly²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: James Doyle| T: W J Haggas| OR: 85

9/2

A winner of two of her three starts, most recently when upped in trip at Wolverhampton. Drop back in trip doesn't look like the obvious move a wide draw a concern but she's entirely unexposed for top connections on handicap debut.

Form: 1-31

(12)

Elysium Dream¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Tom Marquand| T: R Hannon| OR: 84

16/1

Won twice as a juvenile including a valuable sales races at Newmarket. Hasn't been able to get her head in front since but only narrowly denied on her last couple of starts and worth another try at this trip given her pedigree.

Form: 7-57522

(9)

Zoraya^h¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Raul Da Silva| T: P & O Cole| OR: 82| C

14/1

Won her last two starts of 2017, the latter of which was a course success over 7f on soft ground. Running well in defeat this campaign but finds herself in deeper company this time around and may struggle.

Form: 432233

(2)

Escape The City^t1¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: K T O'Neill| T: H Morrison| OR: 82| BF

10/1

One win from 10 runs but has run well in valuable races at both Newmarket and Royal Ascot either side of the winter. Disappointed when favourite last time back at Ascot but she can't be ruled out if the first-time tongue-tie has the desired effect.

Form: 4034-35

(6)

Kalagia⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: P J McDonald| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 81| BF| D

6/1

Had been in good form this season before disappointing at odds-on at Nottingham last time in a three-runner contest. Rates as the type to bounce back and she's an interesting runner here if the rain stays away.

Form: 321212

(8)

Odyssa¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: S W Kelly| T: R Hughes| OR: 80| D

10/1

Won at Newmarket over this trip earlier in the campaign but she's disappointed in three starts since including a C&D attempt back in May. Has a bit to prove at present.

Form: 2-41574

Forecasts

Move Swiftly (9/2), Kalagia (6/1), Hateya (13/2), Labrega (8/1), Rebel Assault (10/1), Escape The City (10/1), Odyssa (10/1), Cavatina (12/1), Zoraya (14/1), Elysium Dream (16/1), Lady In Question (16/1), Dance On The Day (25/1), Sayem (33/1), She Believes (33/1), Elizabeth Bennet (40/1)

It might be worth taking a chance on ESCAPE TO THE CITY who ran a huge race on seasonal return and may bounce back to form in first-time headgear here. Labrega wasn't seen to best effect at Chelmsford last time out where she over-raced throughout the first half of the contest and seemingly did too much too soon that day; better can be expected here with Ryan Moore in the saddle. Move Swiftly has a workable mark for handicap debut and her yard could hardly be in better form at present.
