I Cried For You (IRE) Specialist 7f horse who rarely runs a poor race; has run poorly at this track before and can be passed over here.
Norton (IRE) Won over a mile here last month; lightly-raced and could go close for in-form trainer.
Lots of Love (USA) Best efforts would see him go close but change in trip and lack of class count against him.
Scarlett Ribbon Has been campaigned mainly at 6f of late but if appreciating this step back up is classy and consistent enough to go close.
Polar Kingdom Suited by 6f or 7f; goes on any ground; credit to his trainer and will go close.
Prince Caspian First outing for a long while and unlikely to be good enough on this occasion.
Russian Rhapsody Best efforts on a rain-softened surface and would be hard to beat if ground does soften; if not then he might struggle for in-form trainer.
Only For Gold Chance on the best of his form but seems suited by further these days; goes on any surface and generally consistent.
Cair Paravel (IRE) Goes well for today's jockey and has the ability to run a big race; can run below par on occasions and not one to trust.
Style Dancer (IRE) Stable star who deserves to win a good prize like this; ran well for this apprentice last time out and has the ability to go close although this trip could be on the sharp side.
Samadilla (IRE) Good course form but has not been at his best of late and can be discounted here.
Eurolink Zante (IRE) Lightly-raced dark horse who could surprise at cheeky odds if reproducing his effort at Yarmouth in July; would not want it too soft and trainer not in the best of form at present.
Ikbal Least exposed of these but bare form does not look good enough.
Shatin Venture (IRE) Has struggled of late on ground too soft; if ground coming up faster than good then this gelding could spring a surprise although he did win at this meeting last year on heavy.
Downland (IRE) No real chance considering his trainer's woeful form.
Gift of Gold Trainer not in the best of form and although at best this gelding would go close at his best others preferred here.
