Chasing a hat-trick today. After winning his novice at Bath late last year, he made a very successful handicap debut at Doncaster in March. While the winning margin was only a short head, he looked green and rough around the edges. The form of that race has been boosted since, with both the second- and sixth-placed horses coming out and winning. Today he steps up to 1m 4f for the first time. The extra two furlongs should suit him and more than make up for his 4 lb rise in the weights.

His last outing at Newmarket in April was underwhelming (finished 9th of 13), but he was drawn on a flank that day, which rarely helps. He has a history of performing well at this track. His best recent effort was a close second here last October in listed company, where he posted a Racing Post Rating of 93. If he can rediscover that level of form, he’s not a forlorn hope.

Unlike her main market rivals, she has already had a run this season, winning a Listed race at Nottingham just 18 days ago. That sharpener should give her a distinct advantage in terms of match fitness. She won this exact race last year in great fashion and has consistently performed at the highest level at York, including a solid 4th in the Group 1 International Stakes last August. She spent most of last season competing in Group 1 company (placing in the Nassau, Prince of Wales, and Prix de l'Opéra). Dropping back to Group 2 level here makes her the clear one to beat on official ratings.

Put in an eye-catching seasonal reappearance at Haydock last month. Despite being held up at the back, he stayed on strongly to finish 4th over 7f. Both of his wins last season came over 1m (today’s distance). The return to this trip at a galloping track like York looks tailor-made for him. He runs off an unchanged mark of 103 and looks sure to run well.

Spent the winter in Dubai competing in tough Group and Listed company. While he didn't win, he ran some very solid races, including a close 4th in a Group 2 at Meydan in January. Dropping back into a handicap today is a significant ease in the level of competition. He has a very respectable record at this track. In his two previous visits to York, he has finished runner-up both times. He clearly handles the flat, galloping nature of the course. He runs off a mark of 103. While this is his highest winning mark under rules, it is a fair reflection of his ability, and he has shown he can be competitive at this weight in big-field scenarios. Getting Billy Loughnane in the saddle is a major plus.

Has struggled to find her best form so far this season. Her last outing at Newmarket in April was particularly disappointing, where she finished last of 13 (irregular heartbeat reported). On a more positive note, she has a history of performing well at York. She ran a massive race over this course and distance last October, finishing 3rd, beaten only a half-length. Her official rating has dipped slightly to 87, and with Lauren Young’s 5 lb claim she is effectively running off a mark of 82??"well below her last winning weight. If she can bounce back to form, she's an each-way possibility at a big price.

Significantly well-handicapped: he is now running off a mark of 85. To put that in perspective, he was competing off 96 in the November Handicap at Doncaster last year. He has dropped 11 lb in the weights over the last six months, which makes him look very dangerous if he can recapture his best form. He has a history of performing well at this track, notably placing in the prestigious Melrose Handicap over a slightly longer trip. Returns from a 186-day break today. He has a history of running well when fresh. His seasonal debut last year was a very strong second at Epsom over 1m 4f on good ground.

Has been consistent this season, finishing 3rd of 9 at Beverley on his latest start. He was somewhat unlucky in that race, being denied a clear run at a crucial stage. That suggests he might have more to offer than the bare result shows. While he hasn’t won at York specifically, he is a proven winner over this 7f trip, having won twice at the distance last season. Looks nailed on to run well.

By Justify out of a Galileo mare, her pedigree suggests that today's step up to 1m 2½f will be exactly what she needs. She looked like a rangy sort last year who would thrive over longer distances as a three-year-old. Her reappearance, sixth at the Curragh in April, was on heavy ground, which she clearly hated. A return to a quicker surface should produce a much better performance. She has been 0-4 since her debut win and needs to find a bit of improvement to bridge the gap with Legacy Link on Fillies' Mile form from last season, but she hails from the A. O'Brien yard, who have to be respected.

Trainer Harry Eustace has explicitly stated that her reappearance??"fifth in the Abernant Stakes (Newmarket) four weeks ago??"was a mental wake-up call. She didn't handle the dip at Newmarket well, but the flatter track at York is expected to suit her much better. The booking of Ryan Moore (operating at a 31% strike rate over the last 14 days) is a major signal of intent. She is respected at the weights today, and as a Group 1 winner dropping slightly in grade, she holds a class edge over several rivals. I wouldn't want significant rain.

C&D winner, having won here last month off a mark of 58. She was slightly disappointing last time out at Doncaster, finishing 7th of 12. However, that was over 7f, and the step back up to 1m today is widely expected to suit her better. She runs today off a mark of 62. While 4 lb higher than her winning mark here in April, she has shown enough consistency to suggest she can remain competitive if the return to Yarmouth sparks a revival.

Makes his handicap debut on the level and could be on a decent mark of 67 given he won a Listed Hurdle at Galway last summer and placed in a Class 2 Hurdle at Cheltenham. He showed some promise in his most recent flat outing, finishing 4th at Ballinrobe last month over a similar distance.

Former dual Grade 1 winner. Even though those top-level wins were at 2 miles, he has shown plenty of stamina for this 2m 4f trip. Comes here off a very solid fourth in the Topham Chase at Aintree last month. He was hampered at the start and still stayed on strongly, suggesting he's in a much better headspace now than he was earlier in the season. Trainer Willie Mullins has won three of the last four renewals of this specific race.

Comes into this race having won on his debut at Beverley (1m 2f) 18 days ago. On that debut, he overcame significant inexperience and a steadily run pace to pick off the leaders late. That race setup didn't necessarily suit a closer, yet he still got the job done. Being a lightly raced 3-year-old from the Godolphin stable (trained by Saeed bin Suroor), he is expected to take a major step forward physically and mentally today. Worse off at the weights with the runner-up from that winning debut, but I reckon he'll confirm the form.

Has had a wind operation since his last disappointing run on handicap debut. He remains largely unexposed. While he finished sixth on that handicap debut at Haydock in March, the drop back to 2 miles today is expected to suit him much better than the longer trips he has tried recently. It won't be a big surprise if this strong trainer/jockey combination gets more improvement out of him.

Has finished 5th, 5th, and most recently 3rd in his last three outings. His latest run at Beverley, just 7 days ago, was particularly eye-catching. He led for most of the race and was only headed late on. He ran a solid race here over this trip in April, and he's a viable each-way alternative to the fav.

Her best career performances have come on decent ground, which she gets today. Her recent poor runs (including a PU at Plumpton) were largely attributed to unsuitable soft ground and bleeding from the nose. The Skelton yard is dropping her back down in class off a mark of 108, which should see her competitive in this based on her peak ability.

Finished 3rd at this same track 18 days ago over shorter, which was a step in the right direction. While she is still a maiden on both the flat and over hurdles, she shaped as if she'll be suited by even further distance. Running off the same handicap mark as that recent run, she may improve again under Sean Bowen.

Coming off a stylish victory at Gowran Park 18 days ago, where she resumed after an 11-month layoff. Last season, she was fast-tracked to the Irish 1,000 Guineas after winning on debut, finishing a credible 5th out of 12 runners despite her lack of experience. Looks the type to have a successful season.
