Produced best effort yet on turf when fourth in Silver Hunt Cup at Royal Ascot (1m) in June. Below par both starts since, but drop back to this trip looks a good move and he's not discounted.
Ended last season with a C&D success off 1 lb higher mark and efforts this season prove that, aged 11, he retains plenty of ability. Still, others make more appeal from a win point of view.
Resumed winning ways at Epsom last month, but well held both subsequent starts and he's drawn widest of all.
Progressive last year, winning 4 times, and caught the eye on return at Windsor. Disappointing next time, though, and it could be that the handicapper has his measure for now.
Boasts plenty of solid course form and landed a heavy-ground Catterick handicap (6f) when last seen in October. However, record when fresh isn't great and he's 0-9 when going beyond 6f.
Epsom winner last summer and bettered his low-key reappearance when fifth at Newmarket (7f). Has performed well all 3 previous visits to this track and claims from stall 2 in a first-time visor.
Signed off 2019 with 7f Newmarket victory on heavy ground in November. Has form on better ground and at this course (made the frame both previous visits), but below par all 3 starts this season.
Back on the scoresheet at Windsor (6f) in June and solid second over the same C&D next time. However, effort back there 11 days ago was rather underwhelming and he looks vulnerable now.
Has made the frame all 4 starts so far this year and clearly goes well here (record on Roodee reads 12). Well-drawn and claims will be enhanced should the word 'soft' appear in the going description.
Hit the target twice in 2019 and acquitted himself fairly well on first 2 starts of the current campaign. Not so good at York last time, though, and stall 12 is hardly helpful.
Hasn't done a great deal wrong since scoring at Wolverhampton in December, creditable fifth in first-time cheekpieces at Windsor latest. Now 2 lb lower and connections opt for a visor this time.

Revich (3/1), Lincoln Park (7/2), Sir Maximilian (6/1), Jackstar (6/1), Tranchee (8/1), Shawaamekh (17/2), Almufti (10/1), Aces (10/1), Magical Ride (12/1), Arcanada (18/1), King Of Tonga (20/1), Muntadab (25/1), Boardman (33/1), Gabrial The Devil (40/1)
REVICH shaped as though coming to hand at Newmarket and is appealing back here (good efforts on each of his 3 previous trips to the Roodee), from a good draw and with Tom Marquand in the hot-seat. Almufti is likely to benefit from the drop back to this trip and may be next best, though Lincoln Park will come firmly into the reckoning if the ground is on the slow side.
