7/4
Five-time winner whose best form came a few seasons ago, Won Lingfield h'cap earlier this term and good second at Windsor in June. Raced solo at York last time and that run can probably be ignored. Has every chance if on song.

11/2
Ex-French gelding whose sole success came over 1m1f at Deauville last summer. Went close at Kempton penultimate start over 1m3f on handicap bow but failed to stay 1m6f last time. Drop back looks right and is still relatively unexposed.

11/1
Is 4-11 on AW but just 1-12 on turf. Well beaten last three starts at up to 2m and has been dropped 7lb since tailing off in Northumberland Vase last time. Questions to answer at the moment.

1/1
Hasn't won since 2yo days but ran respectably last time when runner-up in Lecester 1m4f h'cap off this mark in lesser contest. Gets plenty of weight from his rivals but will need to improve to win.

Forecasts

Escape The City (1/1), My Reward (13/8), Oasis Fantasy (7/4), Fairy Tale (11/2), Stamford Raffles (11/1)

Verdict

There may be little to choose between the senior pair of Oasis Fantasy and MY REWARD, with the northern raider just given the nod after a fine effort last time at Ripon. On the pick of his form last year he has every chance. Oasis Fantasy raced alone at York recently, a tactic that failed to work, and is better judged on some solid previous efforts. Fairy Tale is the potential dark horse. He didn't stay 1m6f last time but had previously gone close on his handicap bow off this mark.
