'16-1, wide draw at York and plugged on late from the back to take 8th of 20 behind Enfjaar'
'2-2 this year, in top York handicap latest; lightly raced and heading the right way again'
'Two wins in May; stayed on well from off the pace when third of 20 to Enfjaar at York'
'2-16 on turf; while this return to better ground may well help, others are preferred'
'Shaped as if still in good form (not clear run) in Enfjaar's top York handicap last time'
'His three wins were AW but he was also fourth of 16 at Newmarket (1m, good) this May'
'Has finished down the field lately and a major turnaround is needed in first-time headgear'
'Won in January; flopped at Newcastle in March and no show at Ascot this month'
'Lightly raced 4yo; ran badly when just 9-1 for the Royal Hunt Cup at Ascot six weeks ago'
'Last won in 2021; turf (2023) and AW form (2023 and 2024) to suggest he can be competitive'
'Three French wins 2023; 20-1 and 33-1 for new connections, well below form; headgear now'
'Two wins from 11 runs this year; three backward steps since his last win (Chester in May)'
'Mid-division facing stiff task in Listed race at Royal Ascot in a rare run over this far'
'1m win at Nottingham this June; no show under a penalty in Royal Hunt Cup last time'
'Rather mixed returned to turf, easily best run when second of 16 at York (1m2f) in May'
'7-19 on AW, faring particularly well over 1m2f at Chelmsford; far more to prove on turf'
'Won at Newmarket in May; top handicaps (1m/1m2f) on last two outings don't look good'
'Usually ran with credit on AW December-March; effective here; has sometimes run well fresh'
