Formwatch
Brigadore Won on firm at Newcastle but form does not look up to this standard.
Devise (IRE) Won cleverly at Warwick; place prospects here.
Izmail (IRE) Pleasing run at Newcastle last time; could be good value here.
Johannesburg (USA) Easy winner at Fairyhouse on firm; should take the beating here.
Kulachi (IRE) Shrugged off persistent challenge at Goodwood latest; Dettori booked today.
Lord Merlin (IRE) 25/1 winner at Pontefract last time; his pedigree suggests that he might not appreciate the ground.
Time Royal Has progressed throughout the year; first time on ground this fast.
Waterside (IRE) Yet to get his head in front in lesser company and unlikely to do so here.
Woodsmoke (IRE) Two wins this term; should handle the ground.
Pastel Winner of a Goodwood maiden; will need to be faster today.
