Previous results
In depth
Formwatch
Now Look Here Useful performer at best (won Listed event at Doncaster on reappearance) but needs plenty of give and has stiff task under topweight.
Palanzo (IRE) Well suited by sprinting this year and has proved most consistent in decent grade but appears plenty high in weights.
Deep Space (IRE) Fast ground specialist with turn of foot; landed Wokingham handicap in 1999; looks a shade high in weights still and easing of ground will not suit.
Vicious Dancer Won Lingfield handicap off 3lb lower mark in May and has been highly tried since; will need to find improvement off current mark.
Cubism (USA) Hasn't won since 1999 and still 3lb higher; has it all to do here with visor fitted for first time.
Guinea Hunter (IRE) Tough campaigner but difficult to win with and looks in the grip of handicapper.
Ho Leng (IRE) On long losing sequence and hasn't been showing much of late; needs faster conditions.
Mitcham (IRE) King's Stand winner in 1999 but has failed to trouble judge since; not the force of old and held by Smokin Beau latest.
Candleriggs (IRE) Best form over this trip (2nd at York behind Yorkies Boy first time out) and badly drawn in Wokingham; weighted up to best.
Continent Useful ex-French performer; held by Brevity on recent Ascot form (four-lengths beating, same terms) but will appreciate cut in ground, well drawn and stable do well in this type of event; each way claims.
Marsad (IRE) Useful type on his day and can show fair turn of foot; inconsistent and doesn't win too often; yet to win off mark this high.
Honesty Fair Needs plenty of give in ground and has never won off mark this high; has poor draw in middle.
Smart Predator Has won twice this term (both handicaps over minimum trip); not easy to predict but capable of going close off current mark.
Danielle's Lad Showed improvement for first-time blinkers to land Chepstow handicap latest; more required here under 3lb penalty.
Seven No Trumps Dual winner this term and just 1lb higher than excellent third in Wokingham; will be suited by cut in ground and has to be respected here.
Undeterred Has found form at right time and landed competitive Newcastle handicap latest (now 5lb higher); place chance with good draw but would not want too much rain.
Y To Kman (IRE) Closely weighted with Vicious Dancer on Lingfield form in May but below par latest and something to prove in this company.
Perfect Peach On a long losing sequence and still poorly handicapped; will find trip on sharp side.
Smokin Beau Bounced back to form with excellent performance to win valuable Ascot handicap last Sunday; carries 5lb penalty but has favourable draw and will relish cut in ground; stays this trip and is a leading contender.
Brevity Has been magnificent money spinner for in-form yard (winning eight races this term); handicap mark has rocketed as a consequence (now 35lb higher since start of sequence); tough performer who will be hard to keep out of frame but does not have best of draw and further rain will be of concern.
Juwwi Tough individual who goes swell in big fields and stable in top form; held by stablemate Brevity on Ascot form latest and has poor draw.
Labrett Best form over further and looks too high in weights.
Kathology (IRE) On fair mark, stable in fine form and not disgraced in Wokingham latest; may find this on sharp side.
Halmahera (IRE) Not an easy horse to win with but produced close third behind Brevity latest (same terms here); not without chances from high draw.
Cadeaux Cher Useful sprinter on his day (won valuable Portland Handicap, beating Nuclear Debate in 1998 and now 3lb lower); capable of going close if putting best foot forward.
Differential (USA) Lightly-raced individual but held by Brevity on Ascot form.
Bandanna Held by Brevity latest; hard to fancy at this level.
Whistler Out of form of late; blinkered for first time.
Pays d'Amour (IRE) Often travels well in his races but does not find much off the bridle; in fair form but looks weighted up to best despite good apprentice on board.
Bon Ami (IRE) Runner up in this event last year off just 1lb lower mark but recent form not encouraging.
