Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: Oisin Murphy| T: S bin Suroor| OR: 104| D

10/11

Stayed on well to win comfortably at Haydock last time. Up 5lb for that, but still improving and looks to have decent claims of following up.

Byron Flyer^p¹²

Age: 7| Weight: 9-8| J: James Doyle| T: Ian Williams| OR: 102| D

2/1

Arrives chasing a hat-trick and his latest win at Haydock (1m4f, good), from 4lb lower, was a career-best. More needed again here, but can't say he won't find the necessary.

Not So Sleepy^t¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: Jim Crowley| T: H Morrison| OR: 97

4/1

Not easy to win with, but ran well from this mark at Newbury last time (1m4f) and has previously won from 1lb higher. Fully exposed and needs to eek out more to win.

Forecasts

Huge Future (10/11), Byron Flyer (2/1), Dubawi Prince (7/2), Not So Sleepy (4/1), Rock Steady (14/1)

Last-time Haydock winners Byron Flyer and HUGE FUTURE both have claims of a successful follow-up here, and the latter is just preferred. Dubawi Prince would have claims if able to get back on track, but he still has a bit to prove from 12lb higher than his win.
