Royal Air Force^b1⁷⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: James Doyle| T: S & E Crisford| OR: 93

4/1

Impressive winner of Yarmouth novice on sole 2-y-o start and not disgraced when seventh in Craven at Newmarket on return. Excuses on handicap bow, so remains with potential now blinkered/gelded.

Form: 1-74

Longlai³⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: P J Dobbs| T: R Hannon| OR: 89| D

11/2

Back on the up to score on return at Beverley on reappearance and at least respectable on nexr couple of starts. Out of depth in Britannia Stakes last month and can bounce back here.

Form: 16-1250

Wishaah^t1²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Dane O'Neill| T: Owen Burrows| OR: 89| BF

11/4

Promising sort who made a winning debut at Kempton (7f) last month and ran to similar level when runner-up at Newcastle last time. Should have a big part to play now tongue tied for handicap debut.

Form: 12

Sibaaq²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: B A Curtis| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 84

2/1

Consistent as a 2-y-o and improved this season, successful at Beverley (7.4f) in April and only reeled in late on back there in May. Creditable effort at Chester last month and should be in the mix.

Form: 123-123

Arqoob^h1²²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Josephine Gordon| T: W Jarvis| OR: 83| D

11/2

Upped his game markedly to run out a convincing winner at Yarmouth (1m) on second start for this yard. Not seen to best effect at Haydock (10.2f) since so he's worth another chance now hooded.

Forecasts

Sibaaq (2/1), Wishaah (11/4), Royal Air Force (4/1), Arqoob (11/2), Longlai (11/2), Madame Tantzy (12/1)

Tough to rule any of these out but it could be worth siding with ARQOOB, who attracted support but wasn't seen to best effect at Haydock just over 3 weeks ago and is worth another chance with a first-time hood reached for. The main threat could be Wishaah, who was held back by inexperience when finishing runner-up at Newcastle last month, ahead of Sibaaq.
