1

Equilateral

8-y-o. Not won since 2021. Last in G2 at Goodwood this month but chance on his best form this year.

2

Korker

In good form, good record at York and fair handicap mark. A live contender.

3

Intrinsic Bond

In fine form for the new stable, winner and runner-up in two good Handicaps at Ascot. On career high handicap mark. In the mix.

4

Makanah

8-y-o. Good record at York, including fifth in this race last year. Form this year puts him in the mix.

5

Michaela’s Boy

Several good runs without winning this year, including third in Listed race at York over 1000m. Needs more.

6

Vintage Clarets

After a good series of runs, form dipped this month. Needs to return to his best.

7

Mondammej

Has run 12 times at York without winning. Midfield in this race last year. Needs more.

8

Alligator Alley

In fair form. Falling handicap mark gives him a decent chance. Soft going would be against him.

9

Bergerac

Won this race last year. Beaten a long way in latest two runs, in July. Needs to bounce back.

10

Jm Jungle

Progressive. Won latest two outings, including at Goodwood this month. Acts on any ground. Tough handicap mark demands more.

11

Ancient Times

Eight races since last win but consistent and not ruled out. Unraced on soft ground.

12

One Night Stand

Not hit best form this year. Not seen since well beaten last in June. Would be a surprise winner.

13

Nomadic Empire

Fourth in this race last year. In decent form until lost any chance with very slow start at Thirsk last week. Not ruled out.

14

Manila Scouse

Two good runs at York over 1200m last month followed by two wins over 1000m and 1015m this month. Fine chance if gets soft ground.

15

Ventura Express

Won 4-35. Consistent and in good form recently. Decent prospect of a place.

16

Looking For Lynda

Won 2 from 15. Signs of returning to form in two runs this month. Not ruled out off falling handicap mark.

17

Shalaa Asker

Races and wins mainly at 1200m on all-weather tracks. 1 from 22 on turf but in good form and not ruled out.

18

Dig Two

On long losing run and in poor form this year. Would be a surprise winner.

19

Copper Knight

9-y-o. Not the force he was but has won 7 from 24 at York, including last month. Tough task.

20

Kuwait City

Won at York over 1000m in May. Well beaten over 1200m latest but is better at shorter. A fair chance.
