25/1 |
Seven Questions
Best to forgive his Stewards' Cup run last time (saddle slipped); substandard winner of the Palace House (5f, good) in May but took well to first-time cheekpieces on that occasion; the switch to blinkers may have a positive effect.

- Albasheer
- Hollie Doyle / A Watson

7/1 |
Albasheer
All turf wins on good to firm ground; ties in closely with Democracy Dilemma on Beverley Bullet running and showed he's still in form when finishing well in the Portland at Doncaster last Saturday; threatening to regain the winning thread.

Annaf
Versatile ground-wise; drops back in class, having finished down the field in the Haydock Sprint Cup two weeks ago on return from a break; avoids a penalty for his 7f Group 2 win at Riyadh in February and has a leading chance provided he still has the pace for 5f.

Democracy Dilemma
Acts on any going; largely consistent this year for new stable; made all in the Beverley Bullet (Listed) most recently, holding on by a whisker from Albasheer; given a Group test for the first time but looks likely to give his running.

Desperate Hero
Acts on any ground; successful in last two handicap attempts (May/June; latter form is strong); subsequent performances include respectable efforts in Sandown Group 3 and Curragh Group 1; drops back in class and could go well.

- Oisin Murphy / C Hills

33/1 |
Equilateral
Raced mainly on good/firmer; very useful on his day but has a modest strike-rate in the last three years and failed to show his form in Goodwood handicap most recently; recorded his only Group win on foreign soil.

Significantly
Landed the Ayr Gold Cup (6f, good to soft) on this day 12 months ago; not particularly solid on 2024 form and it's over three years since his last 5f success, so he doesn't look the percentage call.

40/1 |
Toca Madera
Campaigned in handicaps this season, best form when scoring at Windsor (6f, good to firm) in August; couple of 5f defeats since and he has the worst chance at the weights in this Group assignment.

Adaay In Devon
Productive and consistent filly whose record of 7-18 includes 5f Listed wins at Bath and Sandown this term; creditable second in both Group 3 attempts; ties in with Relief Rally on course form in May; major contender, especially granted ground softer than good (6-11 in that scenario).

- No Half Measures

No Half Measures
Generally progressive filly who is 5-9 in this first season, the most recent win at Deauville (6f, good to soft; Listed) in August; kept on for close sixth in Group 3 at Longchamp (soft) returned to 5f last Sunday; may still have more to offer.

Relief Rally
Versatile ground-wise; useful filly whose rock-solid 2yo campaign featured wins in the Super Sprint (over C&D) and Lowther; ran creditably in 6f Listed event here when last seen four months ago, showing that she has trained on; has a record of 112112 at sprint trips and commands respect.
