G3 Killavullan Stakes winner over 1400m at Leopardstown last autumn, having also won the Goffs Million beforehand. Below that level in two starts this season including the G1 Poule d’Essai des Poulains. Not ruled out.

Free-going St Mark’s Basilica colt who returned with victory in the G3 Ballylinch Stud Red Rocks Stakes over about 1450m at Leopardstown. Respectable in both Guineas since and this drop back in trip should help. Worth following up.

Listed Star Appeal Stakes winner over 1400m at Dundalk and has held his form well in defeat this season. Third to Talk Of New York in Listed company over 1600m at Sandown last time and a first-time visor replaces cheekpieces. Not likely.

Prolific juvenile who won five times, including the Listed Two-Year-Old Trophy at Redcar. Fourth in the G3 Pavilion Stakes here before finishing third in Listed company at Epsom over 1400m. Not keen on his chances this time.

Unbeaten in two starts over 1400m at Doncaster last year, latterly in Listed company. Second in the G3 Craven Stakes over 1600m on return before failing to fire in the G1 2000 Guineas. Can do much better this time.

Won an all-weather novice on return but has been well held in a Newcastle Listed race and the G1 2000 Guineas since. Needs a major step forward. Looks tested in this field.

Returned from breathing and gelding operations with a decisive 17-runner Goodwood handicap win over 1400m. Back in Pattern company but that performance suggests he belongs at this level. Sure to be thereabouts again.

Progressive handicapper who won over this course and distance on good to firm ground last month. This is a tougher assignment but proven Ascot 1400m form is a clear positive. Sure to be thereabouts again.

Impressive debut winner over 1300m at Newbury before finishing second in the G2 Mill Reef Stakes over 1200m. Failed to stay 1600m in the G1 2000 Guineas and looks better suited by this trip. Looks hard to beat back in this easier level.

Palace Pier colt who was second in the G2 Vintage Stakes over 1400m before winning a Listed race over 1600m at Salisbury. Returns from an absence but has high-class juvenile form. Looking to others.

Won a Gowran conditions race over 1400m before finishing a creditable third to Causeway in Listed company over 1600m at the Curragh. First-time blinkers replace cheekpieces. Hard to fault form and can measure up again.

Won on debut over 1200m at Redcar before landing the Listed King Charles II Stakes over 1400m at Newmarket. Unbeaten and highly progressive. Going well and looks hard to beat again here.

Gowran maiden winner over 1400m but has not progressed enough in six starts to suggest he can play a leading role at this level. Tongue-tie is applied. Looking to others.

Won a Haydock maiden by 12L on debut and has made the frame in all three Pattern starts since. Returned with a neck second to Azleet in the G3 Nell Gwyn Stakes over 1400m. In the mix.

€300,000 breeze-up purchase who impressed on debut over 1200m at Southwell. Ran well when third in the G3 Fred Darling Stakes over 1400m but disappointed in the G1 1000 Guineas. Hood is left off. Looks tested again.

G2 Prix Robert Papin winner over 1200m at Chantilly last season. Returned with a respectable sixth in the G2 Prix de Sandringham over 1600m and this intermediate trip may suit better. Happy to risk.

G2 Rockfel Stakes runner-up over 1400m as a juvenile and a strong fourth in the G1 1000 Guineas on return. Subsequently bought by Wathnan Racing and should be well suited by the drop back to 1400m. Major player.
