Solid enough 80-rated handicapper for trainer Mark Johnston winner of his final two starts on the AW at Wolverhampton and Kempton for the yard. Runner-up on stable debut when last seen in March.
Won three times over two miles on AW for Mark Johnston last year but bought for just 9000 guineas at horses-in-training sale last autumn. Beaten at least 50L in four starts for current connections.
Winner on three occasions when in the care of trainer Roger Varian. Not disgraced in first couple of starts for new connections. Should take some stopping, highest rated in the charity contest racing 16lb clear of nearest rival.
13-race maiden on the Flat, bounced back to form at Leopardstown last month finishing second of 13 beaten ¾L at odds of 50/1. Capable of another bold show.
Winner over hurdles the Bushranger gelding is without a win in 15 Flat starts on turf. In good form over timber finishing close up in a couple of starts at Sligo last month.
Losing run stretches back to 2015 and didn't look like ending that with never-nearer sixth in 1m Killarney claimer in July before another couple of defeats at Gowran Park and Leopardstown last month.
17-race maiden on turf has looked overwhelmed in three dismal appearances in claiming company over a variety of trips since June.
Winner of one of his eight starts over hurdles, beaten 11L on recent start on the Flat at Tramore over 1m4f last month.
Off the mark for connections at the fourth time of asking on turf when landing a Ballinrobe 1m5½f handicap in July. Beaten since including when last of 11 on most recent start at Tramore last month. Stable debut.
19-race maiden still looking for a breakthrough success in eight Flat starts on turf. Sixth of 24 beaten over 11L on return to action at Cork last month.
Four-race maiden hurdler, beaten 61L on the Flat at the Galway festival before another heavy reversal over hurdles at Tramore last month.
10-race Flat maiden on turf, well beaten over 30L and 76L on a couple of recent starts at the Curragh and Killarney last month.
Third Reserve: Seven-race maiden, well held in a couple of bumper starts and five starts over hurdles. Makes Flat debut.

Charity Race: The former Roger Varian inmate, BOWERMAN is some way clear on the ratings here on his third start for current connections. The five-year-old is 16lb clear of his nearest rival Dalileo who is in turn, 7lb clear of the rest of the charity race field. Neverushacon can grab third.
