Formwatch
Best Lead Speedy individual who handles any fast and soft ground; suited by the minimum trip and expected to run well.
Captain Rio Improved in defeat last time out at Doncaster and if equally effective at 5f he should go close.
Delgado Ran well at Sandown last time out and looks on the upgrade; has run well on soft ground.
Flur Na H Alba This looks his trip and is lightly-raced enough to offer hope of improvement; excellent chance.
Irish Vale Seemed to improve for stepping up in trip last twice so this step down is slight concern; not without a chance however.
Izmail (IRE) Best efforts have come on good ground over 5f; good effort over 6f last time out and is one for a long-looking shortlist.
Master Robbie Some pleasing efforts but did not handle Chester last time out and likely to struggle in this company.
Rum Destiny (IRE) Ran well from a poor draw on Saturday and if reproducing Goodwood run must have a chance of at least making the frame.
Global Princess (IRE) Suited by firm ground but disappointed last time out at Newbury; trainer could be in better form.
Lillies Bordello (IRE) Ultra consistent type who has only ever run on a sound surface; might be just below this level however.
Mitsuki Decent type but level of form is slightly below this level and should do better in handicaps.
Northern Tara (IRE) Best efforts have come over this trip but has only Ripon maiden victory to her name; should get a place.
Lord Merlin (IRE) Improved on debut effort with top draw effort at Royal Ascot in June; absence a worry but a definite danger.
