7/1
Had a first-time hood on and capitalised on a falling mark in a higher grade than need be in 14-runner event at Thirsk (8f, soft) 6 weeks ago, staying on to lead final 50 yds. Up 3 lb but remains well treated on old form, so he's high on the shortlist.

Losing run mounting up but probably remained in form when ninth of 15 at Epsom (8.5f, soft) just over 2 weeks ago. 1 of 3 for David O'Meara yard (also represented by Pisanello and Zozimus).

Low-key start to the campaign, ninth of 11 in handicap at Doncaster (8f, good) just over a fortnight ago. Now below his last winning mark if he can revive but others more persuasive.

9/2
7f AW winner for Sir Michael Stoute who ran his best race for present stable (having been gelded) when second here over 7.8f last September. Showed the benefit of a recent run when fifth of 16 at this course (10.2f, good) just over 4 weeks ago and not taken lightly in this grade.

Just the one win from 36 runs but arrives in form, finishing runner-up for a second consecutive start at Beverley (8.4f, soft) last month. Threatening to come good soon.

25/1
Winner of 7f Leicester novice at 2 yrs and back on track following a quiet start to last season when fourth in a big-field Goodwood handicap (1m, soft) 10 months ago. Has since left Clive Cox and a watching brief is advised on return.

Confirmed the promise of his reappearance in going one better at Ayr (8f, good) 12 days ago, edging ahead close home. Less exposed than most in this field, he could have more to offer.

Encouraging first couple of efforts this season but lost his unbeaten record at Wetherby 12 days ago, never involved from a poor draw. Dropped 1 lb for that effort and can get back on track.

Losing run is mounting up and looked a hard ride back down in grade when fourth of 9 in handicap at Beverley (8.4f, soft) last month. Mark shouldn't be a problem, but his attitude may well be.

11/1
Thirsk winner towards the back end of last season but has returned with a couple of low-key efforts this term, well beaten at this track (7f, good) 3 weeks ago. Hood refitted and heads back up in trip so the sole mare in the line-up merits consideration if back on her A-game.

Won this race last year (from 2 lb higher) but struggled to get competitive in Meydan earlier this year. Dropped in the weights again and not without each-way hope back on home soil.

Last win came at the start of last season and it could be that he's going off the boil after an intensive start to this campaign, well beaten at Leicester (8.2f, good to soft) just under 3 weeks ago. Others make more appeal.

Shaped as if he would be sharper for the run after 11 months off when 7½ lengths seventh of 10 to Boy Douglas at Ayr (8f, good) 12 days ago. Drops another 1 lb and this run should reveal what ability remains.

22/1
C&D winner back at the start of his career who looks to be steadily finding his feet this term, not at his best when seventh of 9 at Beverley (8.4f, soft) last month. Has dropped back down to his last winning mark but the suspicion is he'll prove vulnerable to younger legs.

Forecasts

Boy Douglas (9/2), Theme Park (9/2), Hale End (13/2), Clear Angel (7/1), Titan Rock (7/1), Zozimus (9/1), Mostawaa (10/1), No Nay Nicki (11/1), Dingle (12/1), Barley (14/1), Orbaan (16/1), Pisanello (18/1), Harswell Duke (22/1), Poet's Dawn (22/1), John Chard Vc (25/1), Utilis (25/1), Cisco Disco (40/1)

Verdict

HALE END doubled his tally for the year at Thirsk 4 weeks ago, and given his strength at the finish, Michael Dods's 4-y-o is fancied to defy a 4 lb rise in the weights back over this longer trip at the expense of Titan Rock, who capitalised on a falling mark sporting first-time headgear at Thirsk 6 weeks ago and should be bang there again provided the hood works equally well. Theme Park, Orbaan and last year's winner Mostawaa are just a handful of others to consider, too.
