Northcliff
In good form last May and he's back in top form now, winning at Wetherby and Brighton last month and completing his hat-trick at Ascot last week on his first run for a new yard (now 3-3 in a visor); 4lb rise to defy but hard to discount in current form.

Aberama Gold
Losing run stands at 22 but he retains ability and this is much less demanding than the C&D handicap he contested at the Guineas meeting; slower ground preferable but still holds each-way claims off this mark.

Batal Dubai
Won a 7f AW handicap at Lingfield on New Year's Eve; also ran well at Southwell in February but his last two efforts have been disappointing; lightly raced on turf but fully effective on fast ground; new visor needs to turn things around.

Kiwano
Quiet in Bahrain over the winter and fared no better back in Britain when a remote last of seven at Goodwood two weeks ago; has lots of ability, on a lowly mark, tongue-tie returns and stable amongst the winners but, even so, he's not a solid option.

Imperial Guard
His best effort for Andrew Balding came when second over C&D last September; two runs for new stable, building on his reappearance effort when third at Thirsk two weeks ago (6f, good); one to consider off same mark.

17/2 |
Fiscal Policy
Four 6f wins last year and made winning return to action when seeing off five rivals at Chelmsford 16 days ago (6f); this looks a deeper race but he's only 1lb higher and Kaiya Fraser takes off a useful 3lb; respected.

7/1 |
Eminency
8lb lower than when just missing out at Goodwood last June (6f, good); had wind surgery prior to his reappearance but he hasn't sparkled in either start this spring; blinkers replace visor; should be well treated but a strike-rate of 1-20 tempers enthusiasm.

Rebel Path
Two 6f wins at Chelmsford this winter and not far behind Fiscal Policy at that track 16 days ago; finished further behind Northcliff at Ascot last week though and others appeal more for win purposes.

Royal Musketeer
Goes well fresh so an 11-week absence since a quiet run at Southwell no bad thing; only 2lb higher than for a ready 6f AW win in January and ran well on the July course on the only other occasion Ray Dawson has ridden him; record on both Newmarket tracks reads 532123; one to take seriously.
