In depth
Formwatch
Octane (USA) Seems better suited by this trip than further but would not want it too firm; trainer in good form and this gelding might run into a place.
Royal Cavalier Top notch effort last time at Nottingham showing much improved form; very likely to go close.
Desaru (USA) Improved for stepping up in trip last time with an apprentice aboard; likely to put in good effort again.
Ostara (IRE) Has not proved he stays this trip and is one to avoid.
Rainbow Hill Stepping up in trip and has not been at his best since leaving Sir Michael Stoute's yard; others preferred.
Nancy's Boy Little worthwhile form and stepping up in trip; some promise on latest start but not one to rely upon.
Crystal Creek (IRE) Not regained the form shown for previous trainer but this trainer is starting to hit form; watch the market.
Woodwind Down Never raced over this far but has some decent form; seems to have his own ideas about racing.
Flying Trapeze (USA) Much improved this season and still looks on the upgrade; looks the one to beat.
Simply Eric (IRE) Trainer in great form but this gelding looks to prefer a easier surface; place chance at best.
Saguaro Seemed to be suited to ten furlongs when stepped up last time; generally consistent but probably not good enough.
