In depth
Formwatch
Hypothesis (IRE) Yet to live up to breeding having been well beaten on all starts so far; difficult to recommend.
Ella Falls (IRE) Claims on Folkestone win in July; ran up to that form at Ripon on latest start and has claims if in the same mood.
Comanche Queen Inconsistent mare and yet to prove she really stays two miles.
Gone Too Far Takes a big step up in trip but not certain to be suited by it, either on breeding or style of racing.
Tibbie Not disgraced on first start over two miles at Chepstow last time; more needed here though.
Send Me An Angel (IRE) Has a string of ducks eggs next to her name; likely to add another one here.
Norman Conquest (USA) No sign of encouragement from recent reappearance run after a long lay-off.
Live The Dream Step up in trip a last desperate attempt to salvage something from an unpromising career.
Desert Music Decent first effort over this trip at Musselburgh last time (in the context of this race); solid claims if able to reproduce that form.
Sir Edward Burrow (IRE) Looks more exposed than most of the other three-year-olds.
Picture Palace Disappointed on only previous start over this trip; solid claims on form since but the Beverley has to be forgotten
Merly Notty Moderate plater.
