Liberty Lane⁶³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: D Tudhope| T: K R Burke| OR: 105| C

7/2

Won a 1m course handicap at last year's Leger meeting. Went in again at Newmarket (9f) in May. Bit below form eleventh of 20 in John Smith's Cup at York (1¼m, good to soft) on latest start in July.

Paradias²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: Rossa Ryan| T: A King| OR: 97| D

6/1

Quickly dispelled a lesser effort in the John Smith's Cup when resuming winning ways at Glorious Goodwood (9f) at the beginning of August. Never involved in a big-field race at the York Ebor meeting but the type to bounce straight back.

Form: 50-2010

Daysofourlives^p⁸⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: J Mitchell| T: M Botti| OR: 97| D

10/3

Three-time winner, including over 1¼m. Better than ever in defeat this year, including first home in his group when fourth of 29 in the Hunt Cup at Royal Ascot (1m, firm) in June. Visor off, cheekpieces back on. Considered.

Form: 131-324

Penzance⁵¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: M Appleby| OR: 96| D

12/1

Progressed at a rate of knots on AW over the winter, winning 4 times over this trip and good second of 14 at Newcastle on Good Friday. Not quite so good when switched to turf in June/July and others are preferred again here.

Aerion Power⁴⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-0| J: Joe Leavy⁽³⁾| T: Sir Michael Stoute| OR: 96| C

25/1

Looked as good as ever when edging out Great Blasket (won next time) at Nottingham (1m) in June but down the field at Royal Ascot and Glorious Goodwood since. Others arrive with stronger claims.

Form: 43-0100

Lion Of War³⁷⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Hector Crouch| T: C Johnston| OR: 95

25/1

Useful handicapper in Britain in the first half of last season. Down the field in a couple of starts in the US at the end of last summer and absent since. Has rejoined Charlie Johnston. The betting should help guide to expectations.

King Lear^p,t¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: P Cosgrave| T: G Boughey| OR: 93

12/1

Useful handicapper who reacted well to a first-time tongue strap (added to cheekpieces) when second of 12 in 11f Southwell Racing League handicap 16 days ago. Nudged up 3 lb for that but still respected.

Form: 126-662

Mr King^t²³

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: J P Spencer| T: I Jardine| OR: 91| D

10/1

Useful for Ger Lyons in Ireland and offered plenty to work on for his new stable when seventh of 18 in 1m York Ebor meeting handicap 23 days, nearest at the finish having been caught too far back. Spencer an unusual booking for the stable. Interesting.

Form: 5-52417

Rathgar^p1²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-7| J: Hollie Doyle| T: J Channon| OR: 89| D

13/2

Well served by a positive ride back down markedly in trip when successful at Yarmouth (1¼m) in July. Just as good when runner-up at Chepstow (1¼m again) last month but only a respectable seventh of 17 at the York Ebor meeting since. Equipped with first-time cheekpieces.

Parlando²³

Age: 5| Weight: 8-4| J: S De Sousa| T: Ian Williams| OR: 86| BF| D

13/2

In the form of his life in the Racing League last month, winning at Windsor (good to firm) before second on AW at Newcastle (both 1¼m). No reason why he won't give another good account.

Forecasts

Daysofourlives (10/3), Liberty Lane (7/2), Paradias (6/1), Parlando (13/2), Rathgar (13/2), Mr King (10/1), Penzance (12/1), King Lear (12/1), Marhaba The Champ (20/1), Aerion Power (25/1), Lion Of War (25/1)

PARADIAS didn't have things go his way at York and is worth another chance to show that a 3 lb rise for his Glorious Goodwood success is lenient. Royal Hunt Cup fourth Daysofourlives is second choice ahead of Parlando, who did well in the Racing League last month, and Iain Jardine's Mr King.
