Raadobarg is the ride for Rossa Ryan on Wednesday. The George Boughey-trained runner has won five from 19 career starts on the turf, and is yet to register in eleven attempts in stakes company.

He was last seen over a mile at Deauville finishing two lengths behind Poker Face when fifth in the G3 Prix Quincey. Has something to find in this company.

Tom Marquand

Purplepay

N/A
Age: 4
Weight: 9-1
OR: 101
Days: 18

Tom Marquand takes the ride on William Haggas-trained Purplepay on Wednesday. This filly has failed to score in five efforts so far this year, but she finished behind Heredia in Group 3 company on her latest effort.

She is down in grade this week, but others make more appealing cases.

Eydon

J:
T: Andrew Balding
N/A
Age: 4
Weight: 9-6
OR: 110
Days: 508

Eydon represents the Andrew Balding yard this week, and will be the ride of Oisin Murphy. The four-year-old was fourth of 15 on his previous start when finishing just over four lengths behind Coroebus in the G1 2,000 Guineas.

His absence since that effort would be a clear concern, but he is certainly a main contender if at his best.

Jason Hart

Breege

J: Jason Hart
T: John Quinn
N/A
Age: 3
Weight: 8-11
OR: 104
Days: 39

Breege will be the ride of Jason Hart on Wednesday. The John Quinn-trained runner gets weight from all her rivals this week, and she was last seen finishing fifth of 13 behind Heredia in the Dick Hern Stakes.

However, she does have solid form in the book after previously finishing second in a big field at Royal Ascot over a mile in the Sandringham Stakes.

Novus

J:

N/A
Age: 3
Weight: 8-11
OR: 101
Days: 18

Rhys Clutterbuck takes the ride on Novus for trainer Gary Moore on Wednesday. She was a fine winner in a big field handicap over a mile at Goodwood in August, before finishing fourth of ten behind Heredia in the G3 Atlanta Stakes at Sandown over course and distance.

She makes a very interesting case if the ground goes soft this week.

G Cheyne

Silver Sword

J: G Cheyne
T: Dylan Cunha
N/A
Age: 3
Weight: 9-2
OR: 97
Days: 26

Silver Sword is a runner for trainer Dylan Cunha this week. The three-year-old has a solid record over a mile, which includes a victory over the distance by nearly a length from Catch The Paddy in late August.

He is stepped up in grade this week, but he looks capable of more than holding his own.

J: James Doyle

N/A
Age: 3
Weight: 9-2
OR: 111
Days: 25

Knight is a three-year-old from the Simon & Ed Crisford yard, and he will be the ride of James Doyle on Wednesday.

He ran a solid race on soft ground at Goodwood at the end of August, as he finished a close second behind Angel Bleu in the G2 Celebration Mile. However, his chances will likely hinge on the ground.

David Egan and Roger Varian join forces with Lord Of Biscay at Sandown on Wednesday.
