        Formwatch

        Black Knight Well related colt but better form on a faster surface and needs to improve.

        Chianti (IRE) Struggled when stepped up in class in the Champagne and Dewhurst stakes; may find one too good again.

        Dayglow Dancer Only won once from 10 starts as a juvenile; opened his account for the new season at Doncaster and it will be interesting if he can progress from that.

        Esher Common (IRE) Held by Dayglow Dancer on Doncaster form and difficult to recommend.

        Gryffindor Opened his account in fine style at Doncaster on his reappearance; fit and in form but this is harder.

        Herodotus By Zafonic out of a Mill Reef mare; hard task on debut.

        Inspector General (IRE) Limitations seemingly exposed at Newmarket when last seen but eased when beaten there; may be worth another chance here.

        Lunar Crystal (IRE) Disappointing run when joint favourite for the Zetland Stakes at Newmarket; drop back in trip may suit.

        Northfields Dancer (IRE) Does not have obvious claims on form, but is the chosen representative of two Hannon runners entered at the five-day stage; trainer has a great record in the race.
