The rejuvenated Glasses Up is on a course hat-trick and features very prominently in calculations but this could go to last year's winner POL ROGER (nap), who made an encouraging reappearance at Haydock and is now back in his usual cheekpieces. Hosanna Power and Jujubella could also be involved.[Ben Hutton]

Failed to progress for the now-retired Sir Michael Stoute but he's 3lb lower than when winning last May (1m2f, good) and returned to form with a close third at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) ten days ago on his second start for this yard; could again be thereabouts.
Modest strike-rate and it's possible he's better on Tapeta than turf, but he was denied a clear run when a close fourth of nine at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) ten days ago and is not ruled out.
Won two in a row over C&D last May (including this) and he's well handicapped on his form here later in the season; reappeared with close fifth of nine at Haydock last month, when missing his usual cheekpieces (back on today), and he could have a big say now back at Ayr.
Now 5lb lower than when winning for the Crisfords at Newbury (1m2f, good to firm) last August but well beaten on final run for that yard and same story on first three outings for this stable.
On a handy mark on last season's best form and he can't be ruled out on his return to action; however, he has a mixed reappearance record and has been beaten on his last 11 starts going back to June 2023.
Won at Beverley (1m2f, good) last month and followed up at Hamilton (1m3f, good to firm); only sixth of nine at Lingfield (1m2f, good to firm) last time and needs a bigger performance today, but is not written off.
Well beaten on her four turf runs but they were early in her career on soft and heavy going; progressive on Newcastle AW this year with three wins (1m2f/1m4f) and she's a player if the return to turf isn't an issue.
10yo who has won here ten times, including on his last two starts; had nearly 3l to spare over C&D (good to firm) three weeks ago and a 4lb rise may not stop this rejuvenated veteran.
C&D winner who is well handicapped on course form as recent as August 2023, but she was well beaten over C&D last month when back from a long absence and needs to be an entirely different proposition today.
