Races ORB Ascot - ENG

Often in the money but finds it hard to win. Last raced six-and-a-half months ago when he finished 11th over 1800m in the G1 Dubai Turf at Meydan, beaten 10 lengths. Has to be carefully considered.

Handy gelding who is racing well, including a win last start over 1400m at this track. One of the major players.

Has been out of the money in recent runs including last time out when 14th over 1609m at Curragh seven weeks ago, beaten 5.5 lengths. Tested again.

Broke a long drought last time when he scored by 0.8 lengths at Newcastle All Weather over 1400m. Genuine contender under these conditions.

Has put together four wins from his 28 career outings, and will pay to ignore latest at Newmarket (Rowley). Genuine chance this time around.

Shooting for a hat-trick of wins after scoring by 0.8 lengths over 1600m at Goodwood on October 12. Going well and can measure up again.

No match for today's rival Witch Hunter at Newcastle All Weather over 1400m last start. Unlikely to turn the tables.

Stepping up in trip after finishing fourth over 1400m at this track last time out. Can improve and should figure in the finish.

Doesn’t win often but is rarely far away. Last time out raced handy over 1600m at Newmarket (Rowley) and battled on well for third. Honest and cannot be underestimated.

Scored over 1600m at York two back then missed the frame last time out over 1800m at Newmarket (Rowley). Terrific chance to return to form.

Has not raced since scoring over 1600m at Sandown Park on May 29. Won first-up last prep at Sandown Park over 1600m. Win would surprise.

Lightly raced gelding who progressed nicely last start with a win by 2.75 lengths over 1600m at this track. One of the major players.

Started favourite but the winning run ended last start when he finished third at Curragh over 2011m. Big chance to bounce straight back.

Has not raced since finishing ninth over 1408m at Galway on August 3. Very strong performer at this stage of the prep. Expected to run well.

Has been out of the winner's list for 14 months. Recent form unimpressive including a last-start seventh over 1400m at Newcastle All Weather. Very hard to entertain.

Continued the disappointing campaign last start when 18th and beaten 17 lengths over 1800m at Newmarket (Rowley). Has ability and can test this field on his best form.

Beaten one length into second at Ayr two starts ago then appeared at Goodwood last time and finished 2.5 lengths from the winner in fifth. Looks tested again this line-up.

Not firing at all recently, the latest effort a 5 length fifth over 1400m at this track on September 6. Hard to see him playing a role.

Scored over 1600m at Goodwood two back then missed the frame last time out over 1800m at Newmarket (Rowley). Will need to do a bit more.

Has been out of the money in recent runs including last time out when fourth over 1600m at York eight days ago, beaten 2.75 lengths. Prefer to see him back in form.

Current form mediocre and he is now winless in 462 days. Could only manage 11th over 1400m at Newmarket (Rowley) at the latest appearance. Can't recommend on that performance.

Settled back but kept coming to finish fourth over 1600m at Goodwood last start. In a suitable race and is in the mix.

Has not raced since finishing 7 lengths away in eighth over 1400m at Newbury on August 16. Did finish in the money first-up last prep at Newbury over 1600m. Definite top-three contender.
