€600,000 Frankel colt who looked useful when overcoming unfavourable circumstances to make winning start at Newcastle in June. Absent since but clearly capable when fresh and likely hard to beat.

Fairly useful gelding who has been runner-up twice over C&D this summer. Creditable sixth of 12 in handicap here 6 days ago. Cheekpieces added. Ought to be thereabouts again.

Forecasts

Valyrian Steel (2/7), Al Khabeer (7/2), Ricksen (9/1), Captain Van Dyke (125/1), Whitwell (150/1)

Verdict

VALYRIAN STEEL has been absent for nearly 4 months since his AW debut success but he looked very promising that day and is selected to make it 2-2. Ricksen should have more to come on the back of his Ayr second and can fill the forecast spot ahead of Al Khabeer.

  2. RICKSEN
  3. AL KHABEER
