Comment: Always behind on last two outings (both 7f) but caught the eye when finishing well from the rear to take third on seasonal debut at Ayr (6f, good) in April and is now 3lb below that mark; worth a glance in the betting.

Verdict: The surface is a slight query but STARTLING's 5f AW form this year gives her strong claims. Sixcor may be best of the rest.

9/4

Comment: Her best form has come on slower than good to firm but she ran a fine race on that surface when second to a thriving rival over C&D last month (winner and third won since; Sixcor back in fourth); up 2lb but travelled strongly last time and she has the rail to help today; dangerous if the ground doesn't get too quick.

Comment: Two C&D wins in 2023; ended a losing run with a front-running success at Ripon 13 days ago (5f, good; runner-up has run well since); 6lb rise makes life tougher but not impossible judged on last year's best; high on the list once more.

Royal Duke

Jockey: Rhys Elliott Trainer: R. Mike Smith Age/Wt: 4/9-0 F: 2-4567 OR: 46

5/1

Comment: Off the mark in a C&D handicap last October; also went close here off a 4lb higher mark the following month; his first two runs this year were promising and good to firm ground was perhaps too lively for him on his last two starts; up to making a big impact at this level but drying conditions are a concern.

Comment: Two of his seven wins have come over C&D, the latest achieved when beating Mrs Bagerran last October off 2lb higher; this year's efforts suggest he retains sufficient ability to play a part.

Comment: Prominent racer; 0-8 but her only poor run in five starts for Rebecca Menzies came when blowing the start at Wolverhampton in April; stall 1 and the likelihood of a contested lead suggest it's best to look elsewhere.

10/1

Comment: Won three AW nurseries as a 2yo; series of good 5f AW runs this year and a rare 6f run two weeks ago is not the race to judge her on; more to prove on turf but her two cracks on turf were he first two starts and she's a different filly now; one to consider.

Comment: Huge prices and well beaten in three 5f novice/maiden runs since December; wind surgery a fortnight ago could help and she runs in a tongue-tie for the first time; far from solid but this is at least more realistic; betting to guide.
