Indian Run⁴²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Tom Marquand| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 102| D

14/1

Won the Group 3 Acomb at York last August. Got back on track after a wind op when 6¾ lengths eleventh of 19 to Haatem in Jersey Stakes (125/1) at Royal Ascot (7f, good to firm) 42 days ago, not enjoying a clear run. No forlorn hope on his handicap debut.

Form: 3118-60

Ballymount Boy³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: James Doyle| T: A Keatley| OR: 102

12/1

Very useful juvenile who signed off with a 6f listed win at Doncaster. Returned to form when 3½ lengths sixth of 11 to Montassib in Chipchase Stakes at Newcastle (6f) 35 days ago. Much respected now going into handicaps.

Form: 2281-06

Mister Sketch^p⁷⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Charles Bishop| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 98

18/1

A useful 6f juvenile winner who had cheekpieces fitted for the first time when a good third of 6 to Raqiya in listed race at Salisbury (6f, good) 70 days ago. No forlorn hope on his handicap debut.

Form: 212-603

Jehangeer³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: T Eaves| T: K A Ryan| OR: 97

9/1

Brother to yard's top sprinter Hello Youmzain and he resumed winning ways on the back of wind op/gelded in 6f handicap at Thirsk 31 days ago. Very strong at the finish there so he's a player now stepping up to 7f.

Form: 2173-31

Witness Stand^p1⁴⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: K Shoemark| T: Tom Clover| OR: 97| D

40/1

Useful 7f scorer at 2yrs but he came in last of 13 in handicap at Chester (7.6f, soft) 49 days ago. Cheekpieces go on with a bit to prove.

Form: 322-520

Mission To Moon⁴⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: J Mitchell| T: R Varian| OR: 93| CD

7/2

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: C Lee| T: K R Burke| OR: 93

Arctic Thunder⁴⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A M Balding| OR: 91| D

3/1

Bagged his second success at Ascot (7f) in May and backed it up with a good ninth of 29 in handicap at Royal Ascot (8f, firm) 44 days ago, despite racing freely. Can make his presence felt back in trip.

Form: 5-1419

(12)

Zabriskie Point²³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: R Kingscote| T: C Hills| OR: 91| D

10/1

Dual 5f/7f scorer at 2yrs and resumed from 10 months off with an encouraging seventh of 13 in handicap at Newmarket (6f, good to soft) 23 days ago, fading only late. Needs considering with that run under his belt.

Form: 13419-7

(1)

Cogitate⁴⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Hollie Doyle| T: C Hills| OR: 90| D

14/1

Looked a good prospect when making a winning debut in 7f Newbury novice but has failed to build on it, well held in Britannia at Royal Ascot last time. Not the easiest of rides.

Form: 15-20

Piz Nair^p1⁴⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-5| J: D Egan| T: George Scott| OR: 84

9/1

Resumed with 6f win at Lingfield in April and has continued in good nick, fourth of 10 at Thirsk (7f, good) 48 days ago. Possibilities with cheekpieces added.

Forecasts

Arctic Thunder (3/1), Mission To Moon (7/2), Cuban Tiger (6/1), Qirat (6/1), Piz Nair (9/1), Jehangeer (9/1), Zabriskie Point (10/1), Spanish Blaze (10/1), Ballymount Boy (12/1), Cogitate (14/1), Indian Run (14/1), Mister Sketch (18/1), Serried Ranks (20/1), Witness Stand (40/1)

Kevin Ryan's JEHANGEER showed the benefit of breathing surgery/being gelded when an impressive scorer at Thirsk last time and with this step up to 7f looking sure to suit he edges the vote in this highly competitive event. Roger Varian's Mission To Moon brings very sold handicap form to the table and is feared most ahead of in-form quartet Arctic Thunder, Ballymount Boy, Cuban Tiger and Qirat.
