TIMEFORM VIEW Ran a cracker to finish runner-up in Queen Alexandra Stakes in June. Even better when winning 20-runner handicap at Goodwood (20.6f, good to soft). Marked drop in trip won’t suit, though. TFRHHIII

TIMEFORMVIEW Largely progressive at 3 and took it up another notch to win a valuable Australian handicap in March. Not disgraced at Royal Ascot 3 months ago and given a chance by the handicapper since. Considered. TFRHHHII

TIMEFORM VIEW Smart performer who hasn’t been at the top of his game this term. Latest third of 4 at Haydock was a positive step and he’s been dropped a couple of pounds since, so not a forlorn hope. TFRHHHII

TIMEFORMVIEW Useful sort who got back to winning ways in 10f handicap at Sandown in July and unsuited by the way things developed when runner-up at Newmarket since. A well-run race should bring more out of him. TFRHHHHI

TIMEFORM VIEW Scored at Wolverhampton in February and backed that up with a couple of respectable efforts, tenth in the Chester Cup on latest. Marked drop back in trip doesn’t look ideal returning from a break. TFRHHIII 38
