China Castle Beaten odds-on favourite over longer trip last time but must still have every chance of recovering losses if running to balance of form.
Colonel Custer Looked badly in need of the run when tailed off on his reappearance recently but still needs to improve to figure at the business end today.
Alkateb Not seen out on the level for three years and sure to need the outing/
Ronquista d'Or Poor performer with little hope of getting into the shake-up in this company.
Indian Sun Won a seller over C&D last week and cannot be totally dismissed; each-way prospects.
No Nellie No Of little account.
Ripsnorter (IRE) Best days are long behind him and he'd be better off in a seller.
Jato Dancer (IRE) 4th to Indian Sun here last week and needs to show further improvement to figure; hard to recommend.
Engstrum (IRE) Tailed off on sole start and very hard to see getting into the reckoning.
