2392m – Turf

1 Masai Moon Rallying bravely and looking as though he would appreciate this longer trip when landing quite a classy-looking novices’ event at Nottingham. Gelded since.
2 Nautical Force Up in trip and handicap debut. Both starts this season have suggested that he is progressive.
3 Boatswain Launched into handicap company after two narrow defeats in novices’ events this season. No surprise if he makes a bold show.
4 Daiquiri Bay Strong around Chester’s bends when a maiden winner there in May. Breeding suggests that this trip should suit.
5 Serious Contender Winner of his last two starts, latterly justifying favouritism in a 2000m Leopardstown handicap. Bred for this longer trip.
6 Sing Us A Song Had clearly thrived over the winter, galloping on purposefully to win a Sandown handicap in April. Should have the stamina for this trip.
7 Chess Dad Up in trip and into a handicap having raced prominently when fourth at Nottingham last month, failing to quicken late on.
8 Merchant Likely to be well fancied after looking to thrive at this trip and on fast ground when comfortably winning at York last month.
9 Omni Man Only competing in maiden company so far, latterly when a runaway winner at Roscommon. Likely to be fine with this trip.
10 Gunship The comfortable winner of a Newcastle handicap with the second subsequently giving the form a large boost by winning an Epsom handicap. Chances.
11 Propose One of many lightly-raced potential improvers in this. A hot favourite when a decisive 2000m maiden winner at the Curragh last month.
12 Light As Air Failed to justify favouritism but not beaten far in a Navan handicap last month. In cheekpieces now.
13 The Cursor Has had a break since failing to respond to pressure in a Listed race at Epsom. May struggle again.
14 Pantile Warrior Ran out of gas in the closing stages when tried over further than this last time. Again fitted with a hood.
15 Ammes All encouraging efforts this season though only had one rival to beat at Chepstow last month. Handicapping now.
16 Lightening Mann Good efforts on all starts this year and only caught close home in a classy-looking handicap at Newbury. He should handle longer trip.
17 Mafting All three starts at a similar level latterly when leading almost throughout in a Redcar maiden.
18 Grecian Legacy This longer trip not guaranteed to suit but two good handicap efforts at around 2000m this season, winning at Goodwood prior to a close second at Epsom.
19 Waterford Flow Keeps on running prominently without a win so far. This looks a tough first handicap assignment.
  Reserves  
20 Meblesh The narrow winner of a 2000m maiden at Newbury but couldn’t improve on that in an Epsom handicap.
21 Criminal Hasn’t looked like making an impact in the closing stages on any of his three starts.
22 Novelista Runner-up over a notably longer trip last time. Unlikely to have enough late speed in this stronger contest.
