Weakened badly on a second failed attempt over 1m4f last time and now back on last winning AW mark. Needs to lift on two previous turf efforts and two most recent runs.

Well tried in a couple of strong Goodwood handicaps when third on both occasions since his Pontefract maiden win. Changes headgear once again to blinkers and unlikely to be far away once more.

Progressive and reliable performer notched a fourth win this year when winning over this distance at Newmarket last month. Up 3lb and with his profile it's hard not to see him going close again. Leading hope.

Useful AW handicapper but has only one win on turf. Not been seen to best effect this summer and latest efforts leave him best overlooked once again.

Gained back-to-back C&D wins before not really enjoying the Sandown track and meeting interference last month off this 8lb higher mark. This is tougher again but hard to dismiss back at this track.

Forecasts

Harrovian (2/1), The Corporal (9/4), Cardano (9/4), Volcanic Sky (11/4), Pactolus (10/1), El Ghazwani (10/1)

Verdict

CARDANO is enjoying a fine year and this progressive three-year-old looks well up to defying just a 3lb higher mark than his latest success. Volcanic Sky rates the main danger, is likewise improving and can make a bold bid from the front. Harrovian has run with credit in stronger company the last twice while The Corporal should fare better back over this C&D.
  1. Cardano
  2. Volcanic Sky
  3. Harrovian
