LEG 1 Naqeeb, Mount Atlas
NAQEEB looks primed to land this hot handicap after a huge run at Goodwood, charging home for second despite losing a shoe during the race.
That backed up a storming third at Royal Ascot and he’s crying out for this sort of test.
A strong traveller with proven form on quick ground, he’s weighted to strike and looks ready to cash in.
MOUNT ATLAS is a big danger up in class after a smooth Ascot win.
He’s clearly thriving but has a little bit more on his plate here from a career-high mark.
LEG 2 Trawlerman
TRAWLERMAN can reel in another nice prize after his demolition job in the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot.
He made all that day and surged clear of a strong field, backing up a dominant win in the Henry II at Sandown.
Proven over the trip and fine on this quick surface, he looks the class act here and hard to oppose.
LEG 3 Do Or Do Not, Egoli
DO OR DO NOT can get off the mark in the Gimcrack.
This son of Space Blues has danced every dance this summer, hitting the frame in three consecutive Group 2s.
He was just behind high-class performers at both Newmarket and Goodwood, shaping like a colt crying out for a big pot.
He’s tactically sharp, handles quick ground and looks rock solid with first-time cheekpieces added to the mix.
EGOLI has won twice and fared best on the wrong side of the track at Goodwood. Any improvement on that would put him in the picture.
LEG 4 Night Raider, Arizona Blaze
NIGHT RAIDER shaped better than his form figures suggest, especially when sixth behind JM Jungle at Goodwood.
He was the winner on the wrong side of the track there. Still unexposed at 5f and can improve again.
ARIZONA BLAZE is an improving colt with a turn of foot and showed that with convincing Group 2 win in Ireland last time.
Has high-level form at 5f and arrives at the top of his game. Major player.
LEG 5 Zgharta
ZGHARTA was a typical Goodwood hard-luck story last time and this more conventional track should be ideal.
She finished with running left and the return to this trip on fast could suit ideally.
She is on a workable mark and shapes as one firmly on the up.
LEG 6 Naval Light, Inishbeg
NAVAL LIGHT was far from disgraced in Group 2 company at Royal Ascot and went close in a hot contest at Goodwood last time.
He doesn’t need a lot more to get off the mark.
INISHBEG cost half a million as a yearling and is with a yard that can get them ready first time out.
