Jockey Jim Crowley won this race last year aboard the Ismail Mohammed trained Good Effort. This son of Iffraaj is not getting any younger as he is now a 10 year old, but he is not showing signs of giving up yet.

He won over 5f last time out in a Class 2 event at Beverley beating Clarendon House by 1 ¾ lengths.

There could be more to give again here so he has made himself a major player and will surely be in the mix with another big run expected.

Age: 8
Weight: 9-5
OR: 109
Days: 42

This 8 year old son of Lope De Vega seems to be ageing like a fine wine as he is currently in really good order ahead of this year’s Listed Golden Rose Stakes at Lingfield. Will more than likely go off as favourite after what he showed last time out.

He won a massive 24 runner handicap sprint at Ayr before finishing second at Ascot in the Group 3 Bengough Stakes.

In great form and with another big run looking likely, he is the worthy favourite in what looks an open affair with many of the others having a chance too.

Somewhat of a 5f specialist, but did win over 6f at Dundalk in August beating stablemate Dream Today by a half-length. He then stepped up in Class to run in a Group 3 at the same course and certainly did not disgrace himself when fourth of nine other rivals.

Has plenty of experience and may just be a big contender for the Irish yard. One to keep an eye on as this will be his first run in England since earlier on in the year where he ran at Newcastle.

Days: 22

Champion Jockey Will Buick takes the ride on a horse who managed to make it a hat-trick of second place finishes before a third last time out in a Class 2 event at Doncaster on what was very heavy ground.

Will cope much better on the Polytrack and may be able to threaten rivals with another good run here. Form does not look the worst in the book so may be capable of even better.

Cannot be ruled out.

Exalted Angel

J: Clifford Lee
T: K R Burke
N/A
Age: 6
Weight: 9-5
OR: 97
Days: 35

This 6 year old son of Dark Angel comes here being one of the outsiders and looks a real challenge to make any case for in this sort of event.

Has finished well down the pecking order in recent runs so has not shown anything to warrant having a chance in this.

Easily dismissed for a trainer who has had a good season.

Strong Power

Weight: 9-5
OR: 95
Days: 23

Trainer Alice Haynes is in good form and Strong Power was for sure strong in the finish last time out winning a Class 2 at Wolverhampton beating Spangled Mac by just a head.

Has gone up 5lb for that win and looks unlikely to put in another performance like that off the weight he now is. Not totally ruled out, but a big run looks set for another day.

Logo Hunter

N/A
Age: 4
Weight: 9-5
OR: 110
Days: 22

Has been consistently running over 5f so steps up in trip for this contest, but it may just suit him.

Has failed to get his head in front on his last two runs so will be hoping things can drop his way in running which will make him a threat to rivals.

He has only finished a nose and ½ length behind in second so if he runs to that level again he may just get the victory he deserves.

Can certainly feature after a decent performance last time out.

Tenaya Canyon

J: Saffie Osborne
T: Ed Walker
N/A
Age: 4
Weight: 9-0
OR: 94
Days: 35

This filly looks to play no part here as her last win came in 2021. Has performed better over the shorter distance of 5f so will have to improve for 6f here.

Jockey has found herself in the winners enclosure a few times in recent weeks, but that may not be enough to help this filly challenge other rivals here.

Has not shown a lot in when running in better quality races so one to dismiss for the Ed Walker yard.

J: Franny Norton
T: Charlie & Mark Johnston
N/A
Age: 3
Weight: 9-3
OR: 98
Days: 23

Jockey Franny Norton is in decent form ahead of this and he will have to carry on in that manner if this filly is to have a chance here.

She won a Class 3 at Chelmsford beating Aramis Grey by a length and that horse has gone onto win twice recently. It certainly is not the strongest looking form, but a case can be made for her at a bigger price.

Has to be respected.

Lucky Man certainly does not lack race fitness as he has been seen quite a few times this year.

He was victorious over 6f at York in September, but has not shown much since stepping up in Class.Looks to have another tough race on his hands here and others appeal more.

Another Romance

J:
T: Simon & Ed Crisford
N/A
Age: 3
Weight: 9-0
OR: 97
Days: 35

A winner of two races from ten career starts so far and won a Class 2 at Salisbury in September.

Did not back that performance up next time out as the 6/4 favourite, but has potential to bounce back if regaining some level of form.

Inform jockey James Doyle takes the ride so cannot be ignored, but will have to come on from that latest showing in Class 1 company.
