Classic Encounter
Gained a third win when beating Desert Shadow at Redcar (1m, good to firm) in May and he went down narrowly over that C&D (good; third has won since) four weeks ago; leading claims from an unchanged mark.

Great Chieftain
Two 1m good-ground wins last spring include a defeat of Classic Encounter at Newmarket; creditable fifth of 16 at Meydan in January and although his return to these shores didn't go well when tailed off at Newmarket (raced too freely) in April, he's dipped below his last winning mark; considered.

Desert Shadow
0-10 although he did 'win' at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm; demoted for interference) last August; best run since when second to Classic Encounter at Redcar (1m, good to firm; first-time visor) when last seen in May; gets a weights pull and a form case can be made.

Huscal
Maiden and novice winner who is yet to win a handicap but last time's third of 14 at Newbury (7f, good to firm; fourth has won since) was his best run of this term; far from ruled out off a career-low mark.
