Winner over 1m2f at this venue last term (only win to date) and was entitled to need the run when 5L eighth in 1m2f Newmarket handicap last month. Disappointed on only previous try at 1m4f however.
Has run well over C&D in the past but last three successes have come at Epsom. Not disgraced when 4L fourth at Windsor (1m3f) last month and is now below last winning mark. Makes first start for new trainer.
Became a model of consistency (rewarded with two wins) last season and returned this term in similar vain. Easy winner of Windsor hanidcap (1m2f) latest and while up to career-high mark, he sets the form standard.
Looked to be a frustrating sort but got career back on track when dead-heating for first at Wolverhampton (1m1f) at the start of June. Up 4lb since for first try at 1m4f so handicapper isn't taking any risks.
Previous winner who is on a downward spiral of present. Culminated last season with 78L defeat at Kempton (1m3f) and has plenty against him on comeback effort.
Sole victory came as a shock winner at Yarmouth in 2018 but fared better off reduced mark when 3L third at Newbury (1m2f) last month. Off the same mark in this again so on the shortlist.
Very useful performer at Epsom Downs but showing versatility this season with game victory of 1m4f Newmarket handicap last month. Up 6lb but sets the form standard in this.
Had been running credit after sole victory at Bath (1m5f) last June but regressive in last two starts, including 14L seventh at Goodwood (1m4f) a month ago. Down 2lb but still above last winning mark. Little appeal.
Had become a frustrating sort but seemingly turned a corner when narrow winner of 1m2f Bath handicap late last month. 2lb rise seems fair but claims if backing that run up.
Has had an interrupted career. Returned from 469-day absence with mammoth second at 150/1 at Haydock (1m2f) last month. Off the same mark but will need to prove that wasn't a fluke.

Broad Appeal (4/1), Peace Prevails (4/1), Starfighter (9/2), Rudy Lewis (5/1), Golden Wolf (11/2), C'Est No Mour (7/1), Kirkland Forever (8/1), Uther Pendragon (11/1), Sharp Reply (12/1), Millions Memories (14/1), Sufi (25/1), Banish (50/1)
Plenty of encouraging form is brought into the finale - which hasn't gone amiss by the handicapper - but it may be worth taking a chance with MILLIONS MEMORIES. The four-year-old had struggled off higher marks previously but shaped as if he was crying out for the step up to this distance last time. With no penalty for his latest encouraging run, he may be one step ahead of the handicapper. Peace Prevails and Golden Wolf both landed gambles last time and it wouldn't be a shock if they were to replicate that, but the handicapper has whacked them with hefty rises in the weights, while Broad Appeal looks to be the main danger and has plenty of scope left to improve on his impressive form.
