Clifford Lee

El Caballo

J: Clifford Lee
T: K R Burke
N/A
Age: 4
Weight: 9-10
OR: 112
Days: 288

Four-year-old colt who has been off the track since June last year, after his 18th place finish in the Group One Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot, where Perfect Power triumphed at 7/2 joint-favourite with El Caballo. That followed a near perfect start to his flat racing career, having won six races in a row after finishing second on debut at Doncaster in 2021.

He had claimed grouped success on the way to that run and if he is bouncing back from that Royal Ascot disappointment, the four-year-old should be a big player in this contest.

Connor Beasley

Commanche Falls

J: Connor Beasley
T: Michael Dods
N/A
Age: 6
Weight: 9-10
OR: 112
Days: 147

Experienced runner on the flat for Michael Dods, boasting a number of wins throughout his career, mainly at class two and three level. His last triumph came in the Coral Stewards’ Cup at Goodwood last July, fending off 27 rivals to win by a short head when priced at 25/1. Since then, he has performed relatively well, finishing second on a couple of occasions at York and Ayr before third in a group three at Ascot in October, won by Rohaan.

Was maybe a little disappointing at 15/2 in a listed contest at this course in November, finishing fifth but has the ability to go better here. This is also the trip he has won at numerous times in his career.

Daniel Tudhope

Asjad

J: Daniel Tudhope
T: James Horton
N/A
Age: 5
Weight: 9-10
OR: 107
Days: 162

Asjad arrives here having been off the track since October last year, where he finished second to Dakota Gold in a class two handicap at 11/10 favourite. He has won five races in his career at this trip and five furlongs previously but might be slightly inexperienced at this level, having not ran above class two level.

Fair ask after his break to run well in a class one but arrives unexposed at this level and there should be further improvement from James Horton’s gelding.

David Probert

King's Lynn

J: David Probert
T: Andrew Balding
N/A
Age: 6
Weight: 9-10
OR: 109
Days: 168

Six-year-old for Andrew Balding who was last seen in much greater company than this last time out at Ascot in October, finishing tenth of 18 in the Group One British Champions Sprint Stakes over this trip. Has maybe struggled somewhat to make his mark in that sort of company and his last win dates to November 2021, where he won the Wentworth Stakes here over 6f.

Slightly difficult to call his chances having been raced amongst some very good flat horses last year but probably has a chance against these runners and should not be discounted.

Jim Crowley

Ehraz

J: Jim Crowley
T: Richard Hannon
N/A
Age: 4
Weight: 9-10
OR: 105
Days: 155

Ehraz has been a little disappointing for Richard Hannon after winning a class five back in July 2021, finishing outside of the top two on a few occasions having been asked to step into grouped company for the large part of 2022. Bounced back from a poor run of form to win a class three at Newmarket in October last year at 2/11 favourite, proving too good in that sort of company.

Moves back into class one company again for this contest and is another runner whose chances are tough to call, given he struggled at a higher level than this during 2021/22. Others do make more appeal.

Sam James

Fast Response

J: Sam James
T: K R Burke
N/A
Age: 4
Weight: 9-8
OR: 103
Days: 147

One of the younger ones in this contest as a four-year-old but was in decent form at the end of last season, winning three times between October and November at Nottingham and here twice over 5f and 6f. The last of those was impressive, holding off Tarhib and Art Power to claim class one glory here on heavy ground.

Goes off a nice mark of 103 for Karl Burke and currently looks well-priced in the market to at least consider an each-way play, considering his good form last season and should be one to watch.

Kieran Shoemark

Vadream

J: Kieran Shoemark
T: Charlie Fellowes
N/A
Age: 5
Weight: 9-5
OR: 100
Days: 21

Five-year-old mare who arrives here having run 21 days ago at Wolverhampton in the Listed Lady Wulfruna Stakes, finishing sixth of eight. Her last few outings at this sort of level haven’t yielded the results trainer Charlie Fellowes would have liked.

Her last win came at Ascot in a group three race which was impressive, but that was back in 2021 and she hasn’t showed the same sort of form since and looks unlikely to do so here.

Graham Lee

Tactical

J: Graham Lee
T: Julie Camacho
N/A
Age: 5
Weight: 9-10
OR: 102
Days: 210

Tactical returns after 210 days off the track, following his sixth of 16 in the National Racehorse Week Handicap at Ascot in September last year. His last run at this sort of level came in a group two contest over 7f at Ascot in July, finishing 12th of 21 and hasn’t recorded success since 2021 at Newmarket, winning a class one handicap over 7f.

Drops down to 6f again here, having impressively won at this trip in 2020 at Newmarket in the hands of William Buick but hasn’t been in that sort of form for a while and would need to find a lot to win here.

Hollie Doyle

Wilderness Girl

J: Hollie Doyle
T: Adrian Nicholls
N/A
Age: 4
Weight: 9-5
OR: 100
Days: 160

This four-year-old returns after 160 days off the track after her second-place finish in the Saint-Cyr Listed Stakes at ParisLongchamp behind Times Square. Hollie Doyle takes the reigns here on the filly who hasn’t tasted success since winning at Goodwood in July 2021.

She hasn’t really got close to winning since then and hasn’t made a mark at this level so would be a surprising winner and at around 20/1 in the market, that reflects her chances here for Adrian Nicholls.

Spirit Of Light

J: Cieren Fallon
T: Ian Williams
N/A
Age: 6
Weight: 9-10
OR: 100
Days: 28

Six-year-old gelding for Ian Williams who arrives here after a stint at Meydan throughout this year so far, finishing fifth, second, sixth, 14th and fifth in a variety of races over 6f, 7f and 1m. He has failed to win a race since winning at Meydan back in 2021 and hasn’t been anywhere near winning in the UK, at an even lower level than this.

One of the outsiders to dismiss here.

Jump The Gun

J: David Allan
T: Iain Jardine
N/A
Age: 6
Weight: 9-10
OR: 96
Days: 21

Experienced six-year-old for Iain Jardine who arrives here after finishing eighth in the Lady Wulfruna Stakes at Wolverhampton 21 days ago, which was his second jump into class one company. Last win came at Ayr in August last year but that was in a class four, and he hasn’t been able to transform his class four form into higher levels.

Looks an unlikely winner of this contest and goes off a mark of 96, much lower than most of this field.

Taylor Fisher

J: Taylor Fisher
T: Mike Murphy & Michael Keady
N/A
Age: 5
Weight: 9-10
OR: 80
Days: 184

Heavily raced five-year-old who arrives here off a mark of just 80 for this contest and is the main outsider at around 100/1. He was in good form in 2022, winning at the likes of Brighton, Doncaster and Newcastle but this a huge step up for the gelding.

Might be biting off more than he can chew in this company and it would be a huge shock if he was to pull off a win here.
