4th	2	—	Earth King (G) [P] Notched a fourth career success when scoring at Uttoxeter (23f) in July but below par on both subsequent starts. Peak fitness has to be taken on trust after 7 months off.	C O'Farrell	N P Mulholland	10	71.7 kg	7.50 13/2
1st	3	—	Al Sayah (M) [P] Pair of 21.5f Newton Abbot wins last spring. Off 5 months. looked rusty when 21 lengths last of 4 at Plumpton 24 days ago but should be sharper now.	Jack Tudor	N P Mulholland	6	71.2 kg	5.50 9/2
2nd	4	—	Inferno Sacree (G) FAV Made all over C&D (good to soft) in February and repeated the feat at Plumpton (25f, soft) last month. A further 5 lb rise doesn't look enough to prevent him completing a hat-trick in his current mood.	Murray Dodd	N J Hawke	8	70.8 kg	1.91 10/11

Betting forecast: Inferno Sacree (10/11), Just A Rose (5/2), Al Sayah (9/2), Earth King (13/2)
