In depth
Formwatch
Awake Well beaten in the King's Stand Stakes at Ascot; opposable at present.
Smart Predator Back to 5f after disappointing in the Wokingham Stakes; chance on best form.
Ambitious Has a chance on his recent third to Indian Spark at Newcastle on Friday.
Taras Emperor (IRE) Last at Ascot Heath over 5f; best watched at present.
Nearly A Fool Looks high enough in the handicap at the moment.
Beyond The Clouds (IRE) In good shape this year but plenty high enough in the weights; claimer's 7lb off should help matters
Afaan (IRE) Good effort behind Pure Coincidence at Doncaster last time; invariably finds one too good.
Bandanna Consistent over 5f and 6f; probably not good enough here.
Tadeo Failed to land a gamble on Friday night; interesting that Darley rides today.
Eastern Trumpeter Well beaten at Newcastle on Friday night; should run well but opposable.
Where's Jasper (IRE) Hard to fancy against this caliber of opposition.
Atlantic Viking (IRE) Sixth at Newcastle on Friday; stable not in the greatest of form at present.
Laurel Dawn 4lb out of the handicap today; difficult task.
Vita Spericolata (IRE) Back to 5f today; has the form to run close but hasn't produced it this term.
