Real Dream (G)
Out of his depth when trailing the field in the Ormonde Stakes at Chester (13.4f) last time, but he's generally a consistent performer in turf handicaps, and should at least appreciate the likely strong pace over this shorter trip.

Enemy (G)
[T]
Found his run of good form on the all-weather coming to halt when down the field in a staying handicap at Newcastle in early-April. Drops significantly in distance and his recent record on turf doesn't inspire confidence.

Rogue Millions (G)
Impressive when successful on handicap bow over C&D last year but proved too free on final start for James Owen at Ascot last September. Strong pace should help him settle better on the back of a gelding operation and he's still unexposed …

Claymore (G)
Front-running type ran his best recent race when runner-up in Meydan over the winter but was unsuited by the switch to dirt on final start there in early-April. Entitled to be firmly in the mix on his previous form, though will likely face…

Dancing In Paris (G)
Acquitted himself well without winning in staying handicaps last year, and while it's easy to forgive his end-of-season effort at Haydock in September, he's probably better over further nowadays.

Opportunity (G)

Son of Frankel had some really strong form last season and shaped with plenty of encouragement on his return (gelded in the interim) when third in a solid handicap at Ascot. This race should suit his strong-travelling style, and he has exc…

Ghaiyya (F)
Much improved when landing a fourth career victory at Doncaster on return, and while she was only beaten by a progressive one when attempting to make all at Hamilton last time, more is required upped in grade.

Topteam (G)
Showed a tenacious attitude when scoring under a positive ride at Kempton on return and got straight back on track when runner-up in a useful handicap at Newmarket. Tougher task stepping up in class, though.

Tiernan (G)
Lightly-raced 4-y-o maiden hasn't matched the form he showed when third in a listed race at Hamilton last summer, for all he likely needed the run on reappearance (gelded in interim) earlier this month.

Castle Stuart (C)
Dual winner for Karl Burke who has shaped similarly on both starts for his new yard, hitting a flat spot before staying on to finish sixth in a similar handicap at York last time, though he'll at least benefit from this stiffer test of sta…

Star Harbour (G)

On a long losing run but that's reflected in his mark and he looked a big threat before weakening to finish fourth in a useful lady riders' handicap at Leopardstown last time.

Per Contra (G)
[P]
Better than ever when readily winning off 2 lb higher at Newcastle on penultimate start last season. Hasn't found his form in 3 starts this year but does at least have a good record under his returning jockey.

Hold-up type looked as good as ever with consecutive runner-up finishes at Hamilton this month. In deeper waters here but will appreciate a stronger pace to aim at.
