In depth
Formwatch
Gold Guest Raced in good company of late but is not one to rely on in a finish
Ocean Sound (IRE) Hard to assess on this step up in trip and best watched.
Magic Trick Over all profile not convincing and others look to hold stronger claims over this trip.
Martin House (IRE) Took his race well at York and entitled to take his chance here, but this looks a much tougher assignment and best watched.
Prince Atraf Won on soft ground on his debut but was well beaten over this trip last time and may struggle again.
Platinum Duke Trip and going should not be a problem but may find a couple too good.
Prince Domino Yet to race with cut in the ground but although he has proved seven furlongs to be ideal he may struggle to hold Sir George Turner this time around.
Sir George Turner Steadily getting the hang of things and took his race well last time, should go well again
Steenberg (IRE) Shapes as if this trip should suit and may give the principles a run for their money, each way claims.
Young Lion Not disgraced when stepped up to this trip last time and should go well again but may have to settle for a minor role in the closing stages.
