6. Old Cock – Best Odds: 4/1
Has looked revitalized this season and arrives with a recent win under his belt. Callum Rodriguez rides with confidence, and there’s more to come from this lightly raced four-year-old.
👉 Get on with Unibet

---

7. Blue For You – Best Odds: 5/1
Despite lacking a recent win, this gelding has been competing in higher-quality fields. Daniel Tudhope keeps faith, and if things fall right, he could come late with a flourish.
👉 Bet with bet365

---

8. Sisyphean – Best Odds: 10/1
Capable of a big run when things click, this Kevin Ryan-trained runner has the profile to cause an upset. Shane Gray returns to ride and tactics will be key.

Verdict

Remmooz is the rising force in this field and could keep his perfect record intact with another polished display. Old Cock looks a major player with form and momentum behind him, while Bopedro continues to hit the frame and deserves inclusion for value seekers.

Progressive three-year-old with a string of solid results. Hollie Doyle knows how to ride this course and her mount looks well placed to make a strong challenge.

Verdict

Jm Jungle has been remarkably consistent in Listed company and might just have the edge over these with his turn of foot. Star Of Mehmas continues to impress as a young sprinter and should be right in the mix. Washington Heights adds strength to the shortlist, with his experience and solid form in big-field sprints.

👉 Place your bet with bet365

---

2. Naqeeb – Best Odds: 8/1
Though he’s been under the radar this year, he’s shaping like a threat and is now dropped in grade. Kevin Stott takes over, and this could be the right time for a revival.
👉 Back him now via Unibet

---

Tried in deeper waters lately and didn’t disgrace himself. Rob Hornby is on board again, and he may benefit from a stronger early pace.

Out of sorts lately and will need a significant turnaround. Hollie Doyle keeps the ride, and Marco Botti will be hoping the change of tactics sparks life.

👉 Place your bet with Unibet

---

7. Auld Toon Loon – Best Odds: 33/1
Returned this year with promise but hasn’t built on it. Pierre-Louis Jamin takes the reins again and might look to ride him prominently.
👉 Bet with bet365

---

8. Fox Legacy – Best Odds: 9/1
Scored on reappearance but failed to follow it up. Balding’s runner is clearly talented, and P J McDonald will aim to deliver him late.
👉 Bet via Betvictor

---

9. Faylaq – Best Odds: 25/1

---

11. See That Storm – Best Odds: 5/1
Very progressive type who has hardly put a foot wrong. Rodriguez retains the ride and he’s likely to be involved at the business end.
👉 Bet now at Unibet

---

12. Have Secret – Best Odds: 25/1
Tends to run well without getting his head in front. Fahey’s runner will again try to pounce late under Billy Garritty.
👉 Try a punt with Betvictor

Has shown useful form and could still have more to offer. Elizabeth Gale gets the ride and will be hoping to sneak up the rail.
👉 Bet through bet365

---

14. Dark Moon Rising – Best Odds: 50/1
This Kevin Ryan-trained veteran hasn’t fired this year. Josephine Gordon rides, but a place looks the best he can hope for.
👉 Wager now via Unibet

---

15. Mirabeau – Best Odds: 25/1
Lightly raced and improving, though this test might come a shade soon. Jason Hart rides, and he’ll need to time it perfectly.
👉 Bet at bet365

---

16. Austrian Theory – Best Odds: 28/1
Finished down the field in recent starts and looks up against it again. Warren Fentiman takes over duties.
👉 Bet with Betvictor

---

18. Archivist – Best Odds: 11/4
Lightly raced and looks a serious prospect. Adam Farragher continues on board for the in-form William Haggas team, and he’s well drawn for a perfect stalking trip.
👉 Back him now via bet365

---

19. Qitaal – Best Odds: 50/1
Races often but hasn’t looked like winning in a while. Johnston’s gelding is capable on his day, though that hasn’t come recently.
👉 Bet with Unibet

Verdict

See That Storm continues to impress and may have the scope to go one better in this deeper field. Romieu represents solid each-way value and could sneak into the frame from a handy position. Archivist is the obvious threat with his progressive profile and the Haggas yard in good form.

1. Al Qareem – Best Odds: 13/8
Prolific stayer with a sharp turn of foot, Al Qareem comes into this after a convincing win last time. Clifford Lee remains on board, and the step back up to 1m6f looks ideal.
👉 Bet now with bet365

---

2. Maghlaak – Best Odds: 33/1
Adrian Paul Keatley’s charge has struggled to match higher-grade rivals recently. Oisin McSweeney takes the ride, but a bold finish would be a surprise based on current form.
👉 Wager at Betvictor

---

3. Onesmoothoperator – Best Odds: 12/1
Often stays on late without posing a serious threat. Brian Ellison’s runner should enjoy the trip, and Ben Robinson will be hoping to find racing room when it matters most.
👉 Bet via Unibet

---

4. Samui – Best Odds: 6/1
Represents a strong dual-code yard and has been knocking on the door with solid efforts. Hollie Doyle takes the reins, and any softening in ground would suit him well.
👉 Place your bet at bet365

---

5. Subsequent – Best Odds: 9/2
Lightly raced four-year-old with a progressive profile, he scored impressively in last season’s finale. Andrew Balding’s runner has P J McDonald back aboard and should be a serious player.
👉 Back him now at Unibet

---

6. Tabletalk – Best Odds: 11/4
Reliable and highly consistent, Tabletalk ran with credit at Group level recently. Rossa Ryan retains the ride, and this galloping track looks tailor-made for his running style.
👉 Get on with bet365

Tabletalk continues to prove himself at this level and may well outstay them if the race develops into a test of stamina. Subsequent remains open to further progress and looks the main threat. Samui adds value for each-way players, especially if there’s any ease underfoot.

•  Winner £12,885, 2nd £6,043, 3rd £3,023, 4th £1,510, 5th £755, 6th £378

1. Going Commando – Best Odds: 5/1
Stepping into handicap company after showing definite signs of improvement last time, this colt now looks ready to deliver more under Oisin McSweeney. If he travels as smoothly as he did at Beverley, he could be a threat.
👉 Wager with bet365

---

2. Amazing Journey – Best Odds: 11/4
Scored nicely when getting a clear run second time out, and his opening mark looks generous. Shane Kelly keeps the partnership going, and there’s more to come.
👉 Back him at Betvictor

---

3. Miss Piggle – Best Odds: 14/1
Kicked off her career with promise but has found things tougher in recent outings. Hollie Doyle takes over today and a stronger finish could be on the cards if she gets a patient ride.
👉 Place your bet at Unibet

---

4. Son Of Sarabi – Best Odds: 6/1
Hasn’t hit the frame yet but has shaped better than the form might suggest. Rob Hornby takes the reins again and may try different tactics from a good draw.
👉 Bet now at bet365

---

5. No Spritz No Party – Best Odds: 9/2
Impressed on his second career start with a sharp turn of foot, and enters this handicap off what could be a lenient rating. Connor Planas continues the association and takes off a helpful claim.
👉 Bet through Betvictor

---

6. Believeinmenow – Best Odds: 10/1
While not breaking through yet, this Nigel Tinkler runner has hinted at ability. Faye McManoman gets the leg up again and a midfield draw may give her options tactically.
👉 Go with Unibet

---

7. U Turn – Best Odds: 10/1
Reliable type who keeps running solid races, albeit without winning. Jason Hart keeps the ride, and a first-time strike wouldn’t be a huge shock based on recent consistency.
👉 Back him via bet365

---

8. Dacres Cross – Best Odds: 7/1
Still a maiden but has finished close on more than one occasion. Kevin Stott is in the irons and a good start from stall 1 could give him a decent tactical edge.
👉 Bet now at Betvictor

---

9. Supreme Dancer – Best Odds: 14/1
Comes into this with four educational runs under his belt. Cam Hardie continues on board, and although he’s an outsider, a strong pace might allow him to finish better than expected.
👉 Wager through Unibet

Verdict

No Spritz No Party has done little wrong and looks capable of more following his maiden win. He edges preference in a competitive nursery. Amazing Journey is a clear threat with his impressive formline, while Going Commando could emerge late with a big run if the race sets up right.

---

10. Simiyann – Best Odds: 12/1
Can throw in a big effort when everything falls right, but consistency has been an issue. Clifford Lee takes the reins again, and he’s capable if he runs to his best.

---

11. Marbuzet – Best Odds: 7/1
Has been running well and hitting the frame regularly. Joanna Mason remains aboard, and Tim Easterby’s six-year-old looks one of the more reliable options in the lineup.

Verdict

Curran continues to show improvement and seems well-suited by this distance, making him the one to side with. Rock N Roll Pinkie looks the most obvious threat given his current form, while Russian Rumour brings winning momentum and must be respected.

19. Sugar Baby – Best Odds: 14/1
Scored twice in recent weeks and arrives full of confidence. Aiden Brookes knows how to ride him, and another big effort is certainly possible.

---

20. Glory Hyde – Best Odds: 40/1
Surprised a few punters last time but this looks much tougher. Joanna Mason rides again, though he’ll need a lot to fall right from this draw.

Verdict

This is a wide-open finale, but Filly One arrives in peak condition and may have more to offer from her current mark. Alfa Whiteburd has untapped potential and Hollie Doyle’s presence is a major positive. Sugar Baby, the in-form runner, adds further intrigue and could well make the frame.
