Blue Gold Can be considered on career best effort to hold off Nooshman, in a listed race at Windsor on Wednesday, however he looks to have a little to find in this company.
Compton Bolter (IRE) Best efforts have been with cut in the ground and is stepping up in trip but is in the right grade to make an impact.
Lear Spear (USA) Suited by firm ground and has run well fresh so should give a good account on seasonal reappearance.
Mubtaker (USA) Tackling this trip for the first time but seems to handle any ground and has a good chance if he stays the extra furlong
Courteous Can make the running but does not appear to have re-captured his best form, judged on his two outings so far this season.
King's Mill (IRE) Best when tracking the pace but may be found wanting for a turn of foot in the closing stages.
Maylane Slightly enigmatic character who sometimes seems less than keen under pressure, however is a capable performer if consenting to put in his best.
