Won over half a furlong further at Chester on penultimate start and runner-up when a beaten favourite when dropped back in trip to a mile and a half at Ffos Las. This step back up in trip will suit and Sir Mark Prescott's yard are in top form with 5 winners from his last 24 runners, a 21% strike rate.

A beaten favourite over a mile here on penultimate start, 2nd of 6 beat a length and a half. Last of 6 in a Class 3 over a mile at Ascot last time out but the ease in grade to Class 5 will be easier. Steps up in trip but is out of Derby winner Sea The Stars and this 3 year old is likely to progress over further.

Runner-up in this race last year when trained by Sir Michael Stoute, ironically beaten by a Ralph Beckett horse whose yard she joined in November 2024. Won on stable debut over a furlong further but most disappointed since most recently at Chester where the track and soft ground would not have suited. Ralph Beckett has won this race 3 times in the last 5 years so it is reasonable to assume Power Of Destiny has been targeted for this race and she looks a decent each way bet again this year.

The Johnston yard have traditionally excelled at this meeting and Novelista could well have been targeted for this race as his last 2 races have been over 2 furlongs further and he has been runner-up in both. The drop in trip could suit and William Buick taking the ride for the first time looks positive.

There are a few front runners in this race and the pace is likely to be hot. That could set things up nicely for a hold up horse that has won over further. Shagraan is a former course and distance winner but has also won over 6 furlongs. He likes to race from off the pace and is likely to be produced late here.

Sent off favourite for the Dubai Duty Listed Race over 7 furlongs at Newbury on last race of 2024 but dropped away tamely and looked as though something was wrong. Not seen again until the end of June when last of 8 at York over this trip and last of 6 at Ascot over a mile 17 days ago. This will be his third start for David O'Meara since joining his yard from Sir Michael Stoute in October 2024. He will be much fitter for those 2 runs and was runner-up over course and distance at the 2023 festival when sent off odds-on favourite beat a length so the course will suit. Speculative each way appeal, especially if you can get 5 places.

Kept on inside the final furlong when winning over this trip at the end of May and not seen since. He was behind the re-opposing winner, Humidity, on racecourse debut 2 weeks before that race but looked green that day. He has an impressive pedigree out of Palace Pier and likely more to come for each way value in a tough looking race.

Runner-up over the extended mile at Hamilton last time out, keeping on well to take second close to home. Tries this longer trip for the first time but gives the impression it will suit for each way appeal.

Joined Michael Dods in March 2025 and all 5 races for his new yard have been over 6 furlongs, one in Class 2 company and three in Class 3. Only raced over this trip once before when trained by Richard Hannon and a three quarters of a length runner-up at Salisbury as a 2 year old. Interesting reverting back to the minimum trip for new yard in this Class 4.

A beaten favourite over this trip at Ayr under today's jockey off a mark of 75 beat a length into third place back in May 2025. Disappointed in a big field at York next time out and the soft ground would not have suited at Ayr last time out. This better ground should suit more and could go well off this mark of 72 against this opposition.
