1

Bell Rock

Third in this race last year but inconsistent and last of 30 over 1600m at Royal Ascot latest run. Unlikely winner.

2

Majestic Dawn

Big rise in handicap mark after winning valuable handicap over 1800m last September. Ran well off new mark on return last month. Not ruled out.

3

Johnny Drama

Best form on all-weather tracks but returned from break to win over 2100m at York recently, just beating Cockalorum. In the mix.

4

Maydanny

Won this race last year and running well this year off higher handicap mark. In the mix.

5

Victory Chime

6-y-o. Good record but handicap mark has risen and well beaten by Johnny Drama recently.

6

Harrovian

Not seen since well behind Victory Chime at Epsom in April. Needs to improve.

7

Cockalorum

In fine form over 2000m this year. Narrowly beaten by Johnny Drama latest run. In the mix.

8

Sky Defender

Run well at Goodwood, including when second to Maydanny in this race last year. Below best recently but could bounce back.

9

Lucander

Capable but below best recently and an unlikely winner.

10

Breath Caught

Well beaten this month on first run since October. Needs a sharp improvement.

11

Caradoc

Not won since 2019 but encouraging run on return from break last month over 1593m. Suited by 2000m on fast ground. Interesting.

12

Ouzo

Fair performer but all best form over up to 1700m and well beaten on only run over 2000m. An unlikely winner.

13

Bugle Major

Lightly raced 6-y-o. Good record when trained in France, disappointing since moved to England this year. A tough task.

14

Migration

A solid and improved performer in 2019. Off track until encouraging return last month. Very interesting contender.

15

Data Protection

6-y-o has steadily improved. Now on career high handicap mark and a tough task.

16

It’s Good To Laugh

Won only one from 11 but some good efforts. Narrowly beaten on first run for new stable over 2300m this month. Effective at shorter.

17

Dream With Me

Improved this year but well beaten off raised handicap mark latest two runs. An unlikely winner.

18

Plantadream

Not at his best this year and yet to show that he stays this far. An unlikely winner.
