King Of Angels23
Age: 2|  Weight: 9-1| J: C T Keane| T: H Palmer| OR:  82
Won 7f novice at Doncaster in July and his effort in a valuable big-field 7f York nursery at the Ebor meeting was probably his best yet. Only ninth of 20 in a similar event to this at Doncaster last time, though.

Twice a winner but is exposed as fair so hard to make a case for at these weights.

Winner at Chester (6f, good to soft) in July. Excuses in a Glorious Goodwood nursery next time but firmly back on track when winning soft-ground nursery at York. Big chance on these terms with headgear fitted for the first time.

The Dragon King12

Off the mark in maidens at the third attempt at Doncaster and followed up on nursery bow at Windsor. Came close to resuming winning ways at Hamilton 12 days ago and he's in the mix on that form back up in trip.

Easily best effort when fourth of 9 in nursery at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 16/1) 12 days ago but that is modest stuff.

Fair maiden. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, sixth of 9 in nursery at this course (7f, good to soft, 15/2) 7 days ago. Visor on 1st time. Plenty to find.

Age: 2|  Weight: 8-8| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Watson| OR:  90
Clued up enough to see off a now-useful sort (who was clear of the remainder) with a bit to spare at Doncaster on debut and far from disgraced when 6½ lengths seventh of 16 to Fairy Godmother in Albany Stakes at Royal Ascot (6f, good to firm, 8/1) later that month. Of interest on first run since.

Left first 2 starts well behind when winning maiden at Bath. Too free on nursery bow at Sandown since. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Easy to look elsewhere.

Got off the mark in 8-runner maiden at Leicester (6f, good to firm) and not disgraced under a penalty at Ascot since. Up against it here, however. Headgear on 1st time.

Confirmed debut promise when winning 13-runner novice at Windsor in July before a respectable second in a novice there under a penalty. Excuses at Goodwood since so shouldn't be underestimated.

Forecasts

Brighton Boy (4/1), Twafeeg (9/2), Afentiko (5/1), The Dragon King (15/2), Morte Point (10/1), Aubergine (12/1), King Of Angels (12/1), Invincible Annice (16/1), May Encounter (16/1), Shining Pearl (16/1), Zoulu Warrior (25/1), Fleetwater (25/1), Ruby's Profit (25/1), Queen Of Good News (25/1), Spirited Dancer (25/1), Kylie Of Lochalsh (25/1), Forager (33/1), Diomed Duke (33/1), Lilly's Bet (50/1), Rinky Tinky Tinky (66/1)

Verdict

Several of these are closely matched on these terms but BRIGHTON BOY looks the solid option as he's proven on the ground and has plenty of experience for a race like this. Twafeeg hasn't been seen since a respectable run in the Albany and is potentially a big threat, while Fleetwater and Morte Point make each-way appeal at bigger odds.
