13/2
Distance winner who has been positively ridden to score twice this season including a 10L success at Pontefract. Highly tried on both starts since but should be more at home in this grade.

Probably more effective on AW and made the frame in the Northumberland Plate consolation. Third at York in May and has won on good-to-soft but this mark demands a lot.

8/1
Back to his best this year and this may well be run to suit as this hold-up performer likes a good pace to run at. Goes well for this rider and will be suited to the stiff finish.

Faces competition for the lead and doubtful she will be able to dictate her own tempo as when successful at Haydock last year and again when producing a season's best at Beverley in June.

Stopped the winning run of Graceful Lady in 2017 before joining top Irish yard. Opened his account over hurdles 11 days ago despite looking a tricky ride. No surprise to see blinkers applied and others look more reliable.

Failed to add to her 2017 successes but has maintained a consistent level of performance. Likely she will once again find a better handicapped rival to deny her once again.

Tactically versatile individual effective from 1m4f-2m. Unable to respond when Cliffs Of Dover breezed past him last time and he remains on a vulnerable mark.

7/2
Useful chaser who was a C&D winner in July and then acquitted himself well at the Galway festival. Probably has more to offer on the Flat particularly now conditions are slower.

33/1
Without a win for two years. His best performance in 2017 came over C&D on similar ground off 2lb higher. Not at his best on last two starts and probably has too much to find in a hot contest.

66/1
1m4f winner in 2017 on fast ground. Was used as a miler in the Middle East before returning to these shores and producing three dismal performances. Yet to prove he handles a soft surface and simply has too many negatives to overcome.

Forecasts

Falak (7/2), Archive (7/2), Denmead (11/2), High On Light (6/1), Stone The Crows (6/1), New Society (13/2), Ingleby Hollow (8/1), Four Kingdoms (10/1), Donnachies Girl (12/1), Card High (33/1), Unite The Clans (66/1)

Verdict

A difficult race for the getting out stakes sees a number with obvious chances. New Society will be happier in this grade and Donnachies Girl is set to give another honest account. Four Kingdoms, Stone The Crows and High On Light will battle it out to set the pace and that will play into the hands of Ingleby Hollow. ARCHIVE is a useful chaser suited to soft ground but who came from a long way back to score over C&D when conditions were quicker than he'd like. Since then he has run a big race at Galway and will find conditions more to his liking here.
