1

Andesite

Has only raced once but that was a victory in a novices’ event over this course and distance in May, the form of which has worked out quite well.

2

Big Mojo

Progressed from an encouraging first start to upset some much better fancied rivals in a 1000m Goodwood G3 as a maiden. This 1200m should suit.

3

Billboard Star

Hasn’t done anything wrong so far, and his second in a 1200m G2 at Newmarket in July has been enhanced by the subsequent G1 success of the winner.

4

Caburn

Has won both starts and though only gaining narrow victories each time he has given the impression that he is sharply on the upgrade, outspeeding a big field for a valuable Newbury prize last time.

5

Camille Pissarro

Disappointing when favourite at Royal Ascot but his other three runs all indicate that he is a serious player here. A close second in a G3 at the Curragh last month, the winner landing a G1 since.

6

Cool Hoof Luke

A winner on his debut and has delivered two good efforts in stronger races since, latterly when third in a 1400m Goodwood G2 but not helping his cause by racing much too keenly.

7

King’s Call

Led from gate to wire when landing a 1200m Ayr novices’ event on his debut. Outpaced when down to 1000m for a Goodwood G3. This looks tricky but a return to 1200m may help.

8

Shadow Of Light

Up in grade but his two wins in maiden and novice company were both eye-catching. Latterly he immediately responded to his jockey’s demands for a comfortable Newmarket 1200m win.

9

Symbol Of Strength

Improved from his first to his second start when too strong for two better fancied rivals in a 1100m maiden at Ayr last month. This is a much stiffer challenge.

10

The Strikin Viking

Blessed with lots of speed and only beaten 1/2l in G2s at the Curragh and Goodwood on his last two starts. Facts and figures from those two performances make him a serious contender here.
