Previous results
In depth
Formwatch
Tough Speed (USA) Solid form at this level and should be there at the finish; however may find one or two improvers here.
Muchea Put in excellent performance at Goodwood latest and reproduction of that effort should see him figure here; trainer form the question mark.
Big Future Good performer but may be better at seven furlongs and could do with a slight ease in weights.
Father Thames Lightly-raced and excellent form on three starts so far; trip should suit and will improve; with trainer in excellent form should be the one to beat
Duke of Modena Inconsistent performer who cannot be relied on; chance if putting best foot forward but may find one or two too good.
Pantar (IRE) Consistent performer but would prefer a stiffer test of stamina and trainer out of form.
Attache In decent form at slightly further but drop in trip should not be a problem; however bit to find with some of these.
Ice Dangerous on his day but plenty to find on the bare form figures.
Calcutta Excellent run behind Persiano latest and with trainer in great form looks outstanding each-way value.
Little Amin Not without a chance but a bit of improvement required to win this.
Peartree House (IRE) Plenty to find on form and stable's runners cannot be backed with any confidence.
Kelburne (USA) On the upgrade and in supreme form at present; however further improvement required to win this.
Putra Pekan Has the form to trouble the judge and with trainer in great form must be on the short-list.
Smirk Two wins at Newmarket and racing style will suit the York racecourse; very much one to consider.
Lots of Love (USA) Lightly-raced and open to improvement but bit to find in this company.
Lunar Leo Racing off a decent mark and judged on recent runs is one to consider in open race.
Soft Breeze In excellent form this season and trainer is flying at present; may just find one or two too good.
