| 9th | 1 | 7 |
Kiani King (C)
Persian King colt took a small step forward from debut when fourth of 9 in novice at Wolverhampton (6f, 25/1) 17 days ago. Will stay further than this and perhaps likely to be of more interest when handicapping.

Marengo Storm (G)
FAV
Havana Grey gelding cost £100,000 as a yearling and showed ability when fifth of 12 in novice (10/1) at this C&D on debut 28 days ago. Should improve.

| 2nd | 3 | 4 |
Sargent Dennis (G)
Invincible Army gelding improved on debut form when second of 9 in novice (20/1) at Wolverhampton (6f) 17 days ago, showing plenty of raw speed. Respected.

Rose Dawes | J Channon | 3 | 59.9 kg |

| 8th | 4 | 8 |
Squashy Berry (G)
Territories gelding out of a fairly useful mare but he offered nothing when last of 13 in novice at Leicester (6f, good) on debut 21 days ago.

Kaiya Fraser | C A Dwyer | 3 | 59.9 kg |

Tie Fighter (G)
Acquired plenty of experience at 2 yrs, going close when beaten only a short-head in a 5f Leicester novice in October. Not in same form when last of 4 at Yarmouth when last seen but amongst the standard setters returning from 6 months off.

S De Sousa | E A L Dunlop | 3 | 59.9 kg |

| 3rd | 6 | 5 |
Trinculo (G)
Son of Caravaggio was pitched into the Woodcote Stakes at Epsom (6f, good to soft) on debut and showed a bit of early speed before ultimately finishing a soundly-beaten eighth of 9. Gelded since and worth betting check after 11 months off.

N Callan | George Baker | 3 | 59.9 kg |

| 5th | 7 | 6 |
Elmfield (F)
50,000 gns yearling, Kodi Bear filly. Half-sister to 6f winner Rhythmic Acclaim. Dam, 1m winner, half-sister to 2-y-o 6f winner (stayed 1¼m) Musical Art. Not without hope on paper and makes debut in open race with yard in good form.

Liam Wright | George Scott | 3 | 57.6 kg |

| 7th | 8 | 9 |
Gris De Chine (F)
Havana Grey filly has run to a fair level on both outings at Wolverhampton, most recently when third in a 9-runner maiden there (6f) 35 days ago. Player.

William Carver | Zoe Hawkins | 3 | 57.6 kg |

Lesley Buckley (F)
Inexpensive purchase has been well held all 3 starts to date. First run for yard after leaving Hayley Burton.

| 6th | 10 | 2 |
Wayward Queen (F)
Zoustar filly represents a top yard but made an discouraging start to her career when ninth of 14 in novice at Doncaster (6f, good to firm, 12/1) on debut 10 days ago. Will need to leave that form behind.
