In depth
Formwatch
Gold Guest Seemed to improve last time for a drop down in trip; has run well on easy ground but improvement needed to take this.
Daily Sport (USA) Trainer lacking a bit of form but this colt has produced the best performance of those with experience; may find a couple of the unraced runners too good.
Untidy Son Has produced the type of performances that should not be good enough to take this; trainer respected but looks exposed.
Auriferous (USA) Well-bred newcomer who will be hard to beat.
Esenin Expensive purchase who looks the type who will do better in time.
Fig Leaf (FR) Looks the type who will come to hand over longer distances.
Shirley Collins Very well-related filly who could provide the fly in the ointment for the odds-on favourite.
Million Percent Has improved for every run but trainer is woefully out of form and looks likely to struggle today.
Loweswater (USA) Given gentle introduction a couple of weeks ago over course and distance; improvement expected a bold show expected.
Chantilly Gold (USA) Looks fully exposed and looks hard to back.
