1081m – Turf
1 | Roman Dragon | Back to form when won over 1215m this month. Now on career high handicap mark. Tough task. |
2 | Jordan Electrics | 9-y-o. Excellent second in this race last year and a fair run this month but age is against him. |
3 | Vintage Clarets | Won similar race at Ascot, where has a good record, on 9 Aug. In the mix. |
4 | Tees Spirit | Well beaten in this race last year. Not as good as he was. Unlikely winner. |
5 | Tatterstall | Progressive in 2024. Repeat of that would give him a good chance but not raced for a year. |
6 | Bergerac | 7-y-o. Won this race in 2022. In good form, including at York. Respected. |
7 | Trefor | Raced mainly over 1200m and that seems to be his best distance. A tough task. |
8 | Squealer | Well beaten in this race last year but won over similar distance here in June. Respected. |
9 | Azure Angel | In decent form for new stable this year. Third over similar distance here in June. In the mix. |
10 | The Man | Returned from gelding and wind surgery to win impressively over 1000m at York in May. Leading contender. |
11 | Kendall Roy | A solid performer and in good form. This demands more but has a good chance. |
12 | Brazen Bolt | 8-y-o. In good form for new stable including win over similar distance here in July. Respected. |
13 | Vantheman | Has run well over course and distance. Mixed form this year. Needs to improve. |
14 | Marty Hopkirk | 3-y-o. Mixed form. Heavy ground an excuse last time. Outside chance. |
15 | Mon Na Slieve | A decent record at York. Well beaten recently. Needs to return to his best. |
16 | Curious Rover | Has good record at York including close third in July. Respected. |
17 | Spring Is Sprung | In fine form. Won last three races. This is tougher. Needs to progress again. |
18 | Air Force One | Lightly raced 4-y-o. Won over similar distance here last month. In the mix. |
19 | Cuban Grey | Fair performer in fair form but needs a career best to win. |
20 | Copper Knight | 11-y-o. Won 17-110, including this race in 2021. Still has ability but unlikely winner. |
