Made his handicap debut 28 days ago at Bangor (2m 3½f, Good) and ran an absolute screamer. He took the lead narrowly at the final flight and fought with real grit all the way down the straight, only to be denied by a short-head on the line by Las Canals. That performance strongly indicated he is on a winning mark even off a lb higher. As a 5-year-old Maxios gelding with only five hurdle starts under his belt, he remains entirely unexposed in handicap company, and hopefully he can build on that step forward at Bangor.

Her 3rd-place finish on her bumper debut at Cork 58 days ago sets the clear benchmark here. She didn't get a completely clear run under an inexperienced rider that day but still stayed on powerfully. The strength of that form was instantly franked when the winner (Emerald Enigma) went straight out and scored again next time. She gets one of the top amateurs in the business in the saddle today, and it should resolve any positioning issues she faced last time.

Is coming off an absolute cracker of a run just 10 days ago at Chester (7f, Good), where he was a narrow 2nd, beaten by just a half-length by Dance In The Storm. That was a massive step forward on his second start since transferring from Dermot Weld's yard over the winter. His seasonal/stable debut at Newmarket in mid-April was a touch dusty (finishing 7th), but the massive step up in performance at Chester proves he has fully shaken off the cobwebs and settled into his new surroundings. He was a highly progressive 3-year-old in Ireland last season, winning a competitive Derby Day handicap at the Curragh and a rated race at Killarney. He is clearly a well-bred gelding with a lot of raw ability who is finally discovering his stride on UK turf. He has a 3 lb rise for his Chester exploit, but it shouldn't stop another bold, leading bid in this grade.

Made his seasonal debut just 7 days ago at Leicester (7f, Good to Firm) after a 275-day layoff. He completely botched the start, leaving himself with a mountain to climb. Despite that severe disadvantage, he flew home down the straight to finish a closing 2nd, beaten by only half a length by Zubaru. He runs today off just 1 lb higher, and given how much ground he surrendered at the start, he is clearly performing well ahead of this mark right now.

The David Menuisier-trained colt looks like the classic, unexposed type tailored for this exact race. He finished his 2-year-old campaign with a gritty maiden win at Haydock. He made his 3-year-old and handicap debut 22 days ago at Sandown, tackling 1m2f for the first time. He showed a fantastic attitude, tracking the pace before sticking his head out down the straight to just deny a smart rival. As a son of Night of Thunder out of a Le Havre mare, he has a lovely blend of cruising speed and stamina. Up 6 lb, so life becomes tougher in this company, but he could well prove up to the task.

Hopes pinned on a return to this CD, which saw him win this identical race last year off a mark of 72, making a bold, front-running move under today's jockey. He runs today off an official mark of 70, which is 2 lb lower than when he won the race twelve months ago. Stable apprentice Olivia Haines is back in the saddle today. She knows this 7-year-old gelding inside out, having ridden him to multiple prominent finishes. He needs to show more than he has in his two outings so far this season but is a definite chance if he can.

As a four-time Group 1 winner ??" including his unforgettable 2000 Guineas and Sussex Stakes wins at three, followed by his brilliant Breeders' Cup Mile triumph at Del Mar last autumn ??" he possesses the best form in this field. On official and Racing Post ratings, he's top-rated among these. He made his seasonal debut 36 days ago in the Maker's Mark Mile (Grade 1) at Keeneland. Sent off as the odds-on favourite, he finished a slightly troubled fourth after not getting a completely clear run in the straight. That pipe-opener will have stripped him fitter, and Charlie Appleby used the exact same American prep angle to win this race with Modern Games in 2023. There were minor concerns earlier in the week about the yard's quiet start to May, but Appleby firmly answered those doubts by hitting a double at Newmarket yesterday. At his best, he wins this.

Her best performance of the season came two starts back on April 1 at Dundalk (6f), where she outperformed huge 50/1 odds to finish a close second to Stone Bear. If she can reproduce that level of effort back on turf, she is clearly capable of getting involved in a standard 0-60 handicap. Racing off a rating of 56, she is certainly not harshly treated by the handicapper. If everything falls into place, she has the baseline ability to outrun her current double-digit odds. She has a tendency to struggle if caught out in the open or forced to do too much heavy lifting early on. Apprentice jockey Sadhbh Tormey takes the 7 lb claim today, and if she can find some early cover from stall 9, it will give the filly a much better chance of seeing out the trip.

On his seasonal debut 28 days ago at Newbury (1m2f), he was very keen early on and found himself caught much further back than ideal. Despite having to switch wide for a clear run in the straight, he finished strongly to be beaten by only 3 lengths into 6th. It was a performance that screamed ahead of the handicapper. Dropping back from 1m2f to 1 mile today looks like an excellent move. It should suit his high cruising speed and minimize any issues if he decides to pull hard early on like he did last time. He won over 7f at Newbury last summer, so a strong mile on a sound surface should be right in his wheelhouse. As a 5-year-old, he has been tricky to train and has only had 5 career starts (winning 2). He is still highly unexposed, racing off a very workable mark of 85

Capitalized on a falling handicap mark to win a handicap hurdle at Sedgefield last month. He looks to have found his level again after a period of struggle earlier in the season. Comes into this race after a strong effort on the flat at Beverley just three weeks ago, finishing 3rd of 9. This suggests he has maintained his fitness and sharpness since his last hurdle win. Entitled to be thereabouts in his current form.

Been knocking on the door lately, finishing 3rd in his last two outings at Haydock and Plumpton. His run at Haydock in March was particularly encouraging, when he was sent off favorite and stayed on well despite being outpaced late over a longer trip. Dropping back to 2 miles today could be the key. He’s shown plenty of speed in the past, and the current forecast ground at Aintree should play to his strengths. Running off a mark of 100 today, and given his previous performances in maiden and novice company against higher-rated rivals, this opening handicap mark looks potentially lenient in a first-time visor.

His two runs this season have been disappointing, finishing well down the field at both the Curragh and Sligo. However, he is now 5 lb lower than his last winning mark, so he is technically well handicapped if he can rediscover his best form. A hood is applied today for the first time.

Finished 5th of 10 at Ripon 20 days ago, but his jockey claimed he was badly hampered repeatedly and finished with a lot of energy left. If you watch a replay of that contest, it's pretty obvious that the jockey never even attempted to put him in contention. Races off the same mark today, and I don't expect the champion jockey to come up with such an absurd excuse. He has shown useful form at Newmarket before, including a 4th-place finish in a much higher grade (Class 2) last October. Running in a Class 5 today makes him look very well handicapped.

Has been the runner-up in three of her four handicap starts. Her most recent run at Windsor just 11 days ago was particularly frustrating. She was slowly away and hampered at a crucial moment but still flew home to finish second by a neck. She is running off the same handicap mark (70) today as she did at Windsor, and as she is due a 2 lb rise in future races, she is well in. Trainer Andrew Balding is fitting her with a first-time hood today to help her settle early in the race, as she has shown a tendency to be a bit keen and waste energy in the first few furlongs.

Made a winning start on her debut at Goodwood just 14 days ago. She made all and won comfortably by over a length. That performance suggests she has high natural speed and plenty of scope for improvement. She will find this tougher stepping into listed company, but that applies to the whole field.

The step back up in trip today to 1m 2f is exactly what he needs after being campaigned over slightly shorter distances recently. He has a solid history at York, including a very narrow second (beaten by just a neck) over this exact course and distance last August. He is currently running off a mark of 87. Given he was competitive off marks as high as 92 last season, he is starting to look very well handicapped if he can recapture his best form. Have to put him up as a win selection, but back him each way with extra places available.

Caught the eye at Newcastle last month when he finished fourth. He was held up and denied a clear run at a crucial moment. Once he got out, he finished strongly. While his recent form is on the all-weather, he is a proven winner on turf. He won a competitive handicap at Doncaster last June and has consistently performed well in high-level turf races, including a run in the King Edward VII Stakes at Royal Ascot. Andrew Balding’s yard continue in fine form.

Has only run once, winning a 7f maiden at Doncaster last October on soft ground. While she only won by a neck, the way she battled suggests she has a lot of engine and room for significant improvement as a three-year-old. She is a daughter of Lope de Vega out of the elite mare Dank (who won the Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf). This is a blue-blooded pedigree that suggests she belongs at this Class 1 level. Trainer William Haggas is an expert at placing his fillies. The fact that he is stepping her straight from a Class 5 maiden win into a Class 1 Listed race ??" and has already given her entries for Group 1 races like the Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot ??" speaks volumes about how highly she is held at home.

Before her break, she was in excellent heart, recording back-to-back wins at Chester and Pontefract last summer. She hasn't finished out of the top two in four of her last five starts. May well need the run, but if fit, she has the form to play a part in the finish.
