Chepstow winner in July who disappointed as favourite at Hamilton last time and has loads to find in this company.

Popular at his Breeze Up and showed a bright turn of foot to come from an unpromising position to win Ascot maiden on debut. Went too hard in the Gimcrack at York next time, so remains with potential.

Progressive sort who has a couple of wins to his name and pulled clear of the remainder when runner-up in a York nursery last time. Needs a lot more to seriously compete in this, however.

Made it 2 from 2 when justifying favouritism in Group 3 Molecomb at Goodwood (5f, good) and easily excused a lesser run (hit head in stalls) in the Phoenix Stakes. Could well get back on the up.

Stepped up markedly from his debut when storming clear in a C&D novice and followed up with a bit in hand in listed race at Sandown. Came up short in the Gimcrack at York, though.

Improved again when just denying The Lir Jet in Prix Robert Papin at Chantilly (6f, good) in July, then seemed amiss in the Phoenix Stakes at the Curragh. Could bounce back, so not dismissed.

7/2
Useful, speedy type who's yet to be out of the first 2 and had a bit in hand when landing a listed race at the Curragh in August, so he's dangerous to rule out for all improvement is needed.

Useful filly who already has a couple of wins to her name and wasn't seen to best effect at Naas 19 days ago. This looks a tough assignment, though.

Queen Mary winner who ran another fine race when second to Miss Amulet in the Lowther Stakes at York last time. Return to 5f will suit and she's probably not finished improving.

Winner at Redcar in July and, following a couple of lesser efforts, right back on the up when landing a novice at Ripon in a reasonable time 10 days ago. Lacks the class of a few rivals.

Forecasts

Sacred (11/10), Frenetic (7/2), The Lir Jet (7/2), Steel Bull (11/2), Measure Of Magic (12/1), Mohawk King (12/1), Perotto (18/1), Ventura Tormenta (25/1), Winter Power (33/1), Ubettabelieveit (40/1), Burning Cash (150/1)

Verdict

SACRED could find no extra at the finish having looked the likely winner of the Lowther Stakes at York last time, suggesting there could be a bigger effort in her back down in trip, so she makes obvious appeal having already achieved more than her rivals. The Lir Jet looks a formidable opponent and Mohawk King will likely take another step forward.
