Grey's Monument
Scored in this grade on AW towards end of last year and posted career-best performance when quite comfortable winner of valuable Ascot handicap (7f, soft) last month; usually races prominently; the one to beat.

Northern Express
Seemed to respond well to first-time cheekpieces when gamely making all in valuable Ascot handicap (7f, good to firm) in July, and is back over his optimum trip after last month's perfectly respectable Ayr Gold Cup run; won't mind if there is some lingering juice in the ground; respected.

Ramazan
Yet to win this year but went close in major handicaps at Ascot (7f, good) in May and Ripon (6f, good) in August; behind Northern Express and slightly disappointing in last month's Ayr Gold Cup but still considered here.

Coppull Hall Lane
Low-mileage filly who doubled her tally when winning on handicap debut here (1m, good; Class 4) in July; probably still has potential, but today's task demands a good jolt of improvement and she didn't fire when dropped back to 7f for a valuable handicap at York's Ebor meeting.

Eminny
Bounced back to peak form at Hamilton (6f, good to soft) a fortnight ago, making all to cause 25-1 surprise in a Class 4 handicap; also suited by 7f but has quite a bit to find with the principals here and an uncontested lead is unlikely.

Kindest Nation
Progressive filly who is 2-2 in 7f Class 5 handicaps since fitted with a visor last month; very well suited by ground slower than good and evidently in prime form but has quite a lot on her plate here.
