1st (11) Zanbaq (3.33/1 +5%)
Zanbaq

3.33
3.33/1(+5%)
(11) Zanbaq 3.33/1, Dual novice winner who ran a screamer when second in the Sandringham at Royal Ascot and then wasn't seen to best effect in Group 3 back there 9 weeks ago. Fresh and suspect she has a bigger effort in her.
10
2nd (10) Whitebeam (3.5/1 +22%)
Whitebeam

3.5
3.5/1(+22%)
(10) Whitebeam 3.5/1, Fast-improving filly who got the hat-trick up in 7f Haydock handicap 7 weeks ago, cosily seeing off a subsequent winner. More to come.
7
3rd (7) Crystal Caprice (2.25/1 -29%)
Crystal Caprice

2.25
2.25/1(-29%)
(7) Crystal Caprice 2.25/1, Superbly-bred Frankel filly who has got up a hat-trick easily this summer over this trip, strong at the finish when scoring at Ascot 3 weeks ago. Looks well up to this level. Obvious claims.
2
4th (2) Random Harvest (12/1 +40%)
Random Harvest

12
12/1(+40%)
(2) Random Harvest 12/1, Progressive this year, winning 1m Ascot fillies' handicap in July and going close in listed race at Haydock in August. Not asked to dictate when well held in Sandown Group 3 last time but work to do here against some very promising 3-y-os.
1
5th (1) Improvised (20/1 +60%)
Improvised

20
20/1(+60%)
(1) Improvised 20/1, Three-time winner last year and a number of good runs this term. Unproven over this far though and has her work cut out.
5
6th (5) Arion (40/1 +20%)
Arion

40
40/1(+20%)
(5) Arion 40/1, Two-year-old novice winner but continues to come up short in listed company.
6
7th (6) Crenelle (6/1 +29%)
Crenelle

6
6/1(+29%)
(6) Crenelle 6/1, C&D maiden winner in April and fine efforts in third in the Sandringham (behind Zanbaq) and listed race at Haydock (behind Random Harvest) the last twice. Cheekpieces go on and could be a player if they put an extra edge on her.
8
8th (8) Mystic Wells (22/1 +33%)
Mystic Wells

22
22/1(+33%)
(8) Mystic Wells 22/1, Made all in gritty fashion in 10f Brighton fillies' handicap in April and ran well again from the front in listed Lingfield contest next time. Ridden too aggressively in the Ribblesdale but drops back markedly in trip after 3 months off now.
4
9th (4) Sunset Bay (125/1 -25%)
Sunset Bay

125
125/1(-25%)
(4) Sunset Bay 125/1, Won a brace of 7f handicaps in summer 2021. Limitations rather exposed at listed/Group level since and up against it here.
9
10th (9) Thundershower (25/1 +11%)
Thundershower

25
25/1(+11%)
(9) Thundershower 25/1, Has won twice over the extended 1m at Nottingham this term but held behind a number of these upped in grade at Haydock 7 weeks ago.

Eternal Pearl

1.5
1.5/1(+25%)
(2) Eternal Pearl 1.5/1, Improving Frankel filly who completed her hat-trick in Prix Minerve at Deauville (12f) 40 days ago by 2 lengths from Queen Trezy. Should have more to offer. In the picture.
4
2nd (4) Peripatetic (8.5/1 +58%)
Peripatetic

8.5
8.5/1(+58%)
(4) Peripatetic 8.5/1, Opened her account for the season in good style in 3-runner handicap at Goodwood (12f) 26 days ago. This requires plenty more, though.
7
3rd (7) Sea Silk Road (2.5/1 -25%)
Sea Silk Road

2.5
2.5/1(-25%)
(7) Sea Silk Road 2.5/1, Very useful Sea The Stars filly who landed Nottingham maiden and Goodwood listed event in May. Good fourth in Prix de la Nonette at Deauville (10f) 34 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Sets a good form standard.
3
4th (3) Poptronic (14/1 -40%)
Poptronic

14
14/1(-40%)
(3) Poptronic 14/1, Big improver who completed her hat-trick in 10f Newcastle Group 3 in June. Too free in first-time hood when last of 7 in Yorkshire Oaks at York last time so no forlorn hope with headgear dispensed with now.
1
5th (1) Quenelle D'Or (66/1 -164%)
Quenelle D'Or

66
66/1(-164%)
(1) Quenelle D'Or 66/1, Returned with good fifth in Copper Horse at Royal Ascot but last of 12 in Group 3 at Leopardstown since. Needs to get back on track.
5
6th (5) Queen Of The Skies (33/1 -18%)
Queen Of The Skies

33
33/1(-18%)
(5) Queen Of The Skies 33/1, Landed Chelmsford City novice in June before good eighth of 13 to Shaara in listed race at Yarmouth (10f) 9 days ago. Hood on 1st time and needs another step forward.
8
7th (8) Voodoo Queen (9/1 +25%)
Voodoo Queen

9
9/1(+25%)
(8) Voodoo Queen 9/1, Course winner who wasn't discredited in her hat-trick bid when fifth of 11 to Haskoy in listed race at York (11.8f) 36 days ago. This demands a clear career best, however.
6
8th (6) Royal Scandal (9/1 -38%)
Royal Scandal

9
9/1(-38%)
(6) Royal Scandal 9/1, Looked smart prospect when scoring on debut at Newcastle in May and comfortably notched a second win in minor event at Kempton last month. This is tougher but she has more to offer and can't be dismissed.

1st (2) Commissioning (3.5/1 -40%)
Commissioning

3.5
3.5/1(-40%)
(2) Commissioning 3.5/1, Kingman filly who made a very impressive winning start to her career on the July Course here 8 weeks ago. Looks more than capable of making her presence felt at a much higher level.
5
2nd (5) Electric Eyes (16/1 +36%)
Electric Eyes

16
16/1(+36%)
(5) Electric Eyes 16/1, Became yet another winning 2-y-o newcomer for the stable this season when seeing off 9 rivals at Thirsk (7f, soft) 3 weeks ago. Likely to improve but will need to leave that bare form well behind to go close in this company.
11
3rd (11) Rage Of Bamby (7/1 -8%)
Rage Of Bamby

7
7/1(-8%)
(11) Rage Of Bamby 7/1, 6f Newbury debut winner in June and looked very useful when easily seen off 11 rivals over 7f at Leicester 11 weeks later. Not to be underestimated.
13
4th (13) Sweet Harmony (66/1 +18%)
Sweet Harmony

66
66/1(+18%)
(13) Sweet Harmony 66/1, Landed a 6f Yarmouth maiden early last month but came up well short in the Lowther at York a fortnight later. Likely outsider now tackling 7f for the first time.
14
5th (14) Sydneyarms Chelsea (14/1 -17%)
Sydneyarms Chelsea

14
14/1(-17%)
(14) Sydneyarms Chelsea 14/1, Useful filly who improved to win Group 3 Prix Six Perfections at Deauville (7f, good) last month by ¾ length from Terrestrial. A bit more will be needed to follow up here.
3
6th (3) Dance In The Grass (9/1 +25%)
Dance In The Grass

9
9/1(+25%)
(3) Dance In The Grass 9/1, Won over 7f at Sandown on first 2 starts, latterly a listed event (pulled clear with Prestige winner Fairy Cross). Something can't have been right when disappointing favourite in May Hill. Capable of bouncing back.
12
7th (12) Rich (16/1 -33%)
Rich

16
16/1(-33%)
(12) Rich 16/1, Cracksman filly who made a winning debut in a big field at Newbury (6f) at the end of May. It's taken a bit of time to get her back to the track but interesting that good 2-y-o stable is prepared to pitch her in at deep end on her return
4
8th (4) Dubai Jemila (50/1 +0%)
Dubai Jemila

50
50/1(+0%)
(4) Dubai Jemila 50/1, Expensive Breeze-Up acquisition who opened her account at the second time of asking in a novice at Ayr 38 days ago. This is a much tougher assignment, but she's open to further improvement.
10
9th (10) Olivia Maralda (2.5/1 +17%)
Olivia Maralda

2.5
2.5/1(+17%)
(10) Olivia Maralda 2.5/1, Newbury maiden winner who improved again when excellent ¾-length second of 7 to Meditate in Debutante at the Curragh (7f, good to firm) 5 weeks ago. That's the best piece of form on offer here.
8
10th (8) Lakota Sioux (16/1 +36%)
Lakota Sioux

16
16/1(+36%)
(8) Lakota Sioux 16/1, Tail flasher but it hasn't prevented her developing into a very useful juvenile, including a Group 3 win on the July Course (7f, good to firm). Possibly unsuited by heavy ground when last of 11 in Moyglare latest.
7
11th (7) Ipanema Princess (200/1 -100%)
Ipanema Princess

200
200/1(-100%)
(7) Ipanema Princess 200/1, Epsom maiden winner in July. Quite useful form in Group 3 events in France last month but well below par at Goodwood latest. Surely vulnerable at this level of competition.
6
12th (6) Eximious (12/1 +33%)
Eximious

12
12/1(+33%)
(6) Eximious 12/1, Looked a useful prospect when readily taking a 7f Salisbury maiden on her second start. More to come from her and the stable is flying.
1
13th (1) Cell Sa Beela (50/1 -25%)
Cell Sa Beela

50
50/1(-25%)
(1) Cell Sa Beela 50/1, Confirmed debut promise when comfortably opening her account at Beverley last month. Improved again when 6 lengths fourth in 1m May Hill at Doncaster since but she'll need a fair bit more to go close at this level. Yard's good form provides some hope, though.
9
14th (9) Leitzel (20/1 +0%)
Leitzel

20
20/1(+0%)
(9) Leitzel 20/1, Unbeaten in 2 starts, namely a 7f maiden and 1m novice. Takes a jump in class now but she likely has more to offer.

Mutasaabeq

2.25
2.25/1(+44%)
(2) Mutasaabeq 2.25/1, Smart colt who resumed with Thirsk conditions event victory and went close in Group 2s at Sandown and Ascot. Possibly didn't handle the track in Celebration Mile at Goodwood last time and expected to bounce back in first-time headgear.
1
2nd (1) El Drama (8/1 +20%)
El Drama

8
8/1(+20%)
(1) El Drama 8/1, Smart performer at 3 but not seen since finishing a below-form sixth in a York Group 3 at the 2021 Ebor meeting. Yard's good form provides hope on belated return but betting perhaps the best guide to expectations.
4
3rd (4) Tempus (1.25/1 +58%)
Tempus

1.25
1.25/1(+58%)
(4) Tempus 1.25/1, Built on his excellent third in the Royal Hunt Cup in no uncertain terms, winning handicap at Ascot and Group 3s at Salisbury and Deauville, defying a penalty at latter track last month. This the next logical step and big player.
5
4th (5) Potapova (7/1 -87%)
Potapova

7
7/1(-87%)
(5) Potapova 7/1, Showed much-improved form when winning Group 3 at Sandown last month though was seen to maximum effect, sweeping down the outside from off the pace. More probably needed taking on the males now.
7
5th (7) Oscula (10/1 -11%)
Oscula

10
10/1(-11%)
(7) Oscula 10/1, Won 15-runner Oak Tree Stakes at Goodwood (7f) in July. Defied a penalty in Group 3 at Deauville following month before creditable third in similar event there following month. Likeable sort who's holding her form remarkably well, but another career best required.
6
6th (6) The Wizard Of Eye (40/1 +0%)
The Wizard Of Eye

40
40/1(+0%)
(6) The Wizard Of Eye 40/1, Highly tried since landing a Newbury novice (6f) last summer, but has posted some solid efforts, notably when runner-up in the Thoroughbred Stakes at Goodwood penultimate start. Likely to be outclassed here, though.

(5) Kolsai 0.91/1, Promising individual. Hooded, nose second of 7 in novice event at Leicester (7f, good, 4/1) on debut 17 days ago despite being slowly away. Represents yard in tremendous form and seems sure to improve.

Siskany

2.75
2.75/1(+0%)
(7) Siskany 2.75/1, Very smart gelding who proved a disappointment on back of 7 months off (has gone well fresh previously) when eighth of 9 in 11f Newbury Group 3 last Saturday. However, interesting connections turn him out quickly and bounce back distinctly possible. Cheekpieces on 1st time.

(1) Without A Fight 2.5/1, Gained second listed success of career at York (13.8f) in June and followed up in Group 3 over same C&D when landing 3-runner John Smith's Silver Cup a month later. Can give another good account despite conceding weight all round.

Passion And Glory

3.33/1(+39%)
(2) Passion And Glory 3.33/1, Group 3 winner at Goodwood (12f) last term and back to best when landing 7-runner Sandown listed event (10f) in July. Not in same form at Haydock (10.5f) 48 days ago but he arrives here with yard amongst the winners.
3

Candleford

6
6/1(+0%)
(3) Candleford 6/1, Progressive 3-y-o who took another sizeable step forward when easily landing Duke of Edinburgh at Royal Ascot on his reappearance. Not seen to best effect either start since, latterly when midfield in last month's Ebor and likely he still has more to offer.
5

Global Storm

8

(5) Global Storm 8/1, Smart performer who was a game winner in handicap company at Meydan in February and has run creditably in defeat since, 4.5 lengths ninth of 20 in last month's Sky Bet Ebor. Not out of things eased back in trip.
6

The City's Phantom

16
16/1(+36%)
(2) The City's Phantom 16/1, Back with a bang when landing a 1¼m Yarmouth handicap by six lengths on return in April. However, remains 5 lb above that winning mark, despte finishing nearer last than first on each of his 3 subsequent starts, and connections now turn to cheekpieces.
6

Turntable

11
11/1(+8%)
(6) Turntable 11/1, Good record at Newmarket (form figures on the July Course/Rowley Mile combined read 1412125) and was nicely on top at the finish when landing this race last year. 5 lb higher this time round, though, and needs to bounce back from a below-par effort when last seen in June.

Colour Image

11
11/1(+21%)
(4) Colour Image 11/1, Got off the mark in handicaps when taking a 4-runner event at Bath in June, bumped last ½f and just holding on. By no means disgraced in a minor event at Ascot (1m, good) last time but his profile is rather patchy and others look stronger here.
11
3rd (11) Cu Chulainn (22/1 +45%)
Cu Chulainn

22
22/1(+45%)
(11) Cu Chulainn 22/1, Appeared to be back on the right track when scoring on the AW at Lingfield in June, but has since retreated back into his shell and it's probably best to look elsewhere.
7
4th (7) Stormy Ocean (2/1 -45%)
Stormy Ocean

2
2/1(-45%)
(7) Stormy Ocean 2/1, All-the-way winner of a Newcastle novice in January and shaped better than the result when third on handicap debut at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in March, unable to overcome poor draw. Remains with potential and bold show likely if fully tuned-up for this assignment.
1
5th (1) Value Theory (2.5/1 +17%)
Value Theory

2.5
2.5/1(+17%)
(1) Value Theory 2.5/1, Resumed winning ways at Ripon last month and followed up in good style off 3 lb higher over 1¼m here (good to firm) 6 days ago. 1 lb 'well in' under a penalty and likely to give it a good shot, for all that this is a more competitive race.
5
6th (5) United Front (11/1 +31%)
United Front

11
11/1(+31%)
(5) United Front 11/1, Enhanced fine AW strike rate during the winter, winning pair of handicaps in December prior to good third in the Lincoln Trial in March. Record stands at 0-12 on turf, but his mark reflects that and he'll be dangerous if, as expected, they go a good gallop here.
8

Absolute Ruler

80

(8) Absolute Ruler 80/1, Initial promise he showed for Donnacha O'Brien as a 2-y-o now seems like a long time ago following a couple of lacklustre performances in handicaps for new connections.
10

Coase

9
9/1(+44%)
(10) Coase 9/1, Has largely acquitted himself well since narrowly landing a 10-runner 1m handicap here off a 1 lb higher mark in April. Easy to forgive this 5-y-o for a rare below-par effort at Sandown last time and he's not without each-way hope.
3

Leuven Power

7.5
7.5/1(-7%)
(3) Leuven Power 7.5/1, Clear-cut winner of a 1m Salisbury handicap last month but failed to make an impact under a penalty at York 9 days later and new mark has now kicked in (effectively 5 lb higher than that off which he was competing at York). Cheekpieces applied.
