In depth
Formwatch
Saratov Highly tried last season including behind Hemingway here at Ebor meeting; should appreciate step up in trip but unproven over it.
Sixty Seconds (IRE) Had plenty of use made of him at Newmarket; readily outpaced behind Rosi's Boy there and needs to improve.
Canada Closely matched with Sixty Seconds on Newmarket form; would probably prefer softer surface.
Sweet Prospect Step up in trip should suit; stable have made a slow start to the season so probably best watched.
Zulfaa (USA) Stable has excelled itself with three-year-old handicappers this term so this one has to be respected on reappearance.
King's Welcome Encouraging second to Shayadi on reappearance; well held since and likely to find at least one too good again.
Polish Off Has been off since opening day of the season; may want softer ground.
Balladeer (IRE) Heavy ground winner at Warwick; would probably want softer ground.
Lady Bear (IRE) Fair fourth to Mumbling (winner again since) at Pontefract last time; ground faster than ideal.
Tiyoun (IRE) Looks more exposed than some of his rivals.
Magic Box No sign of encouragement at Salisbury last week; difficult to fancy.
