Avery Ring All-weather this winter and relatively unexposed on turf. Cannot rule him out.
Yorker (USA) Won off 68 on all-weather debut at Southwell recently, and Avery Ring well held. Not much on turf last season but could easily improve
Ball King (IRE) Quite impressive when on sand at Lingfield last year. Very hard to assess but reportedly well thought of and stable is in decent form.
Densim Blue (IRE) Course winner last year but quite exposed and may find at least one or two too good.
Eastwell Manor Form so far looks moderate and faces a stiff task here.
Father Seamus Has struggled this season and no chance at these weights.
Forever My Lord Notched a hat-trick last summer and finished the season in some hot races. Definite chance if fit enough for reappearance.
Gay Challenger Looks exposed and unlikely to be good enough to play a leading role in this.
Hard To Catch (IRE) Fit from reasonable all-weather campaign and won on firm ground last year. Definitely not one to put a line through.
Knock (IRE) Course winner on fast ground last year and also won this winter. From a stable with a great record here so likely to be fit enough.
Lord Liam (USA) Not one to get excited about on what we've seen so far.
Ryan's Gold (IRE) Lightly raced and more scope than most, though in truth he hasn't shown too much ability yet.
Swanton Abbot (IRE) All four races have come on fast ground, so not sure how he will handle this surface, but others certainly preferred anyway.
Tinstre (IRE) Has a veritable mountain to climb in this company.
Japan (IRE) Took three races to get his head in front on the sand. Makes debut on turf but does not appeal too much.
Fast Foil (IRE) Fair effort in decent handicap at Ripon on reappearance. Seems to handle any ground, but stable not in the best of form.
Victeddu Much improved effort on reappearance in a very good race at Newmarket. If she can reproduce that form here, she'll win.
