After being narrowly held by a subsequent winner over this trip on debut at Sandown, VECU didn't quite get home over 1m at Newmarket last month but that form has been boosted by the third winning a valuable contest since. The return to 7f should suit the selection on his all-weather bow and his stable won this race in 2021. Fitzmaurice is a 470,000gns full-brother to dual Group 2 winner Chindit, so he should be capable of better than what he showed when very green first time out at Newbury, while Brave Mission has displayed signs of promise in his two starts to date. Saeed bin Suroor has his string in fine form and a bold debut bid can be expected from Castle Gates, a half-brother to Oaks runner-up Dance Sequence.

A winner second time out at Windsor, AFENTIKO then chased home a smart-looking debutant over this C&D last month and sets a decent standard on his nursery bow. A mark of 83 seems fair and he is fancied to get back in the winner's enclosure, possibly at the main expense of Monomyth. Ollie Sangster's colt narrowly failed to defy a 5lb hike for his Doncaster success when runner-up at Southwell, but a further 4lb rise is a concern as he tackles an extra furlong here. Dual Beverley runner-up Footwork could prove best of the rest.

Green Storm's two efforts over 7f at Haydock haven't been devoid of promise, while Must Believe built on his debut when touched off by the narrowest of margins over this C&D last month. However, the winner of that C&D event was a well-held fourth on debut behind AMILOC, who created a good impression in making a winning start over 7f here. Ralph Beckett's gelding is bred to appreciate this step up in distance and looks capable of stepping forward to defy his winners' penalty.

She's A Warrior caught the eye when staying on into third over C&D on her debut last month and must be respected with improvement likely, but it is JUMEIRAH SEA that gets the nod. Simon and Ed Crisford's filly was unable to justify favouritism at Nottingham recently, but that performance was not without promise and she could step forward now. 160,000-euro purchase Dark Lyric warrants a market check ahead of her racecourse bow.

Machete Beach made it two wins from two when on target at Windsor in May and, though respected, an opening mark of 84 doesn't appear to be a gift. With that in mind, preference is for the steadily progressive CAMBRIA LEGEND. A comfortable winner over the extended 1m4f at Chester last time out, he does not look overburdened by a 4lb rise and further success may await. Incensed heads the remainder.

A number of these hold claims, but tonight could finally be the night that OUTGUN gets off the mark. Alan King's charge arrives following a number of solid efforts in defeat, including when a slightly unlucky second over C&D last time, and he makes plenty of appeal back on a mark of 71. Sonnerie Power was just a neck behind the selection in the aforementioned track-and-trip event and has gone close at Lingfield since. He and Capstan, who won his last three starts prior to a break, are the pair feared most.

Hiatus ticks plenty of boxes and must enter calculations, but he's if a little rusty on his first outing in 115 days, then ANOTHER BAAR could take full advantage. He has been in cracking form on the turf recently, backing up a class 5 win with two solid placed efforts in class 4 company, and it's encouraging that he finished a close-up third on his only previous all-weather outing. Fierce and Tremblant are others to keep an eye on.
