Ardennes²²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: James Doyle| T: E Walker| OR: 84

16/1

Left debut effort behind when scoring at Salisbury in June and backed that up when second at Newcastle. Decent fourth on nursery bow at Goodwood since, perhaps overdoing things slightly in front. More needed here but return to 5f should suit.

Binadham²⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Jim Crowley| T: K P De Foy| OR: 94| D

Yarmouth debut winner but limitations exposed at higher level since.

Do It Now²²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Connor Beasley| T: A Keatley| OR: 90| D

25/1

Off the mark at third attempt at Ripon in May and improved on that when good fifth of 19 in Super Sprint Stakes at Newbury (5.2f, good to firm, 20/1). No show on nursery bow at Goodwood since, however, and others preferred.

Fuji Mountain²⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: D Allan| T: D Carroll| OR: 84| D

25/1

Speedy sort who came good in 5f Chester novice but limitations exposed at a higher level either side of that.

Form: 72010

King Of Light¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: S H James| T: K R Burke| OR: 83| D

22/1

Showed a bit of improvement to get off the mark in 5-runner novice at Musselburgh (5f, good to firm) 15 days ago but likely to be found wanting here.

Form: 3371

(4)

La Bellota¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Darragh Keenan| T: J Ryan

33/1

Runner-up both starts, neck second of 5 to King of Light in novice at Musselburgh (5f, good to firm, 5/1) 15 days ago. This looks very ambitious.

Form: 22

Magnum Force^t⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: C T Keane| T: G M Lyons| D

9/2

Justified market confidence at the second attempt in 14-runner maiden at Cork (5f, good to firm) 8 days ago, cosily. This is a big step up but he's clearly held in high regard.

Form: 21

Mr Lightside²⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Rossa Ryan| T: M Appleby| OR: 103| D

4/1

Left debut well behind with 5f novice wins at Redcar and Nottingham. Stepped up again when ¾-length third of 15 to his stablemate Big Mojo in Molecomb Stakes at Goodwood since, showing plenty of pace. Could be hard to peg back.

Sir Yoshi³⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: L T McAteer| T: D Marnane| OR: 91| D

28/1

Off the mark at third attempt at Tipperary in May and decent efforts in defeat upped in class since, 4½ lengths sixth of 10 in Anglesey Stakes at the Curragh (6.3f, good, 50/1) 34 days ago. Likely to find a few too strong once again.

The Man^h1²⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: R Havlin| T: R Spencer| OR: 84| D

33/1

Useful pedigree and created a favourable impression when winning on debut at Southwell (5f) in April. Things haven't gone to plan at a higher level since but would still be a surprise winner.

Tropical Storm²³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A M Balding| OR: 101

5/2

Stepped up on debut when second at Newmarket and further progress when runner-up in Norfolk Stakes at Royal Ascot (5f, firm, 11/1). Went off too hard in Richmond Stakes at Goodwood (6f, good to firm) since and worth another chance back down in class/trip.

Form: 5228

(8)

Vingegaard²⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: L Morris| T: A Watson| OR: 94| D

10/1

Mehmas colt who was second home in his group in the Windsor Castle before finishing a fine close second in the Super Sprint at Newbury, faring best of those ridden prominently. Lost all chance at the start in Molecomb Stakes at Goodwood since and remains of interest.

Form: 1529

Beauty Queen²⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: D Tudhope| T: K A Ryan| OR: 85| BF| D

11/1

Looked good prospect when winning 9-runner novice (9/4) at Beverley (5f) on debut but beaten by a couple of newcomers when only third under a penalty here (6f) 4 weeks ago.

Form: 13

Blue Zodiac²⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: R Kingscote| T: M L W Bell| OR: 86| D

25/1

Much improved from her debut when winning a 7-runner novice at Yarmouth (5.2f, good to soft) and shaped well when third in conditions stakes at Goodwood (5f, firm) 24 days ago. Plenty to find here but she remains with potential.

Form: 613

Make Haste^h,t³¹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: G M Ryan| T: D Dias| D

18/1

Too keen for her own good in Queen Mary at Royal Ascot but had made a winning debut at Naas and back on track when second in listed race there last month. In the mix.

Form: 102

River Seine⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: O J Orr| T: K R Burke| OR: 88| D

16/1

Front-runner who was placed 3 times prior to easily winning 4-runner maiden at Pontefract (5f, good). Decent fourth in listed race at Newbury since but will find it tough dominating this field.

Forecasts

Tropical Storm (5/2), Mr Lightside (4/1), Magnum Force (9/2), Vingegaard (10/1), Beauty Queen (11/1), Ardennes (16/1), River Seine (16/1), Make Haste (18/1), King Of Light (22/1), Do It Now (25/1), Fuji Mountain (25/1), Blue Zodiac (25/1), Sir Yoshi (28/1), La Bellota (33/1), The Man (33/1), Binadham (50/1), Pearl Of Windsor (66/1)

MR LIGHTSIDE continues to improve in leaps and bounds and could prove hard to peg back here given the way he went through the race when third in the Molecomb at Goodwood. Tropical Storm did too much too soon in the Richmond and is expected to bounce back, while Vingegaard is another who wasn't seen to best effect at Glorious Goodwood.
