Previous results
In depth
Formwatch
Wiseman's Ferry (USA) Won over 6f on firm; subsequent third over 5f but interesting that O'Brien has chosen this race.
Dizzy In The Head Second to smart Whitbarrow in Windsor conditions race; solid each-way claims.
Gold Guest Didn't appear to like this ground at Pontefract; passed over.
Maktavish Second to Shiny (Ninth on Tuesday) in the National Stakes when conceeding 8lb; claims on the book.
Shuffling Kid Brockleby winner; not sparkled too much since but yard respected.
Dangerous Liaison Finished fourth from a poor draw at Chester; may prefer an easier surface but in with a shout.
Delgado Back to 5f today and probably will find this too tough.
Highland Warrior Green at Haydock last time out but will need to improve significantly to figure here.
Irony (IRE) Looked useful on his Haydock win; third has franked the form with Whitbarrow but this is a tough ask.
Lord Fernando Nothing to write home about in his first two races.
Online Investor Potential dark horse; won well at Bath; runner-up has franked form since.
Pentecost Should improve for second to Princess Sofie at Pontefract.
Simianna Seems to have improved on faster ground; stable to be respected for its 2 year olds.
Aunty Mary Beat Raised the Bar at York over 5f; may figure if progressing.
Daily Sport (USA) Difficult introduction here.
Partytime (IRE) Seems suited by the faster conditions and looks the pick of the Hannon pair.
Anima Mundi (IRE) Disappointed at Warwick and all to do here.
Decima Appears better suited over 6f.
Dizzy Tart (IRE) Fifth in a strong Newbury maiden; more on plate today.
Leggy Lou (IRE) Fair fifth behind a subsequent Salisbury winner; should improve for that.
My Dancer (IRE) Disappointed after a good effort at Chester; behaves somewhat temprementally in her races
Northern Tara (IRE) Behind My Dancer at Chester; has looked to have run out of steam on starts.
Steaming Home (USA) Produced a likeable performance on Tipperary debut; interesting jockey booking.
Wish Beaten 4l by Latin Lynx (Fourth here on Tuesday); not knocked about that day and in with a big chance.
