Runners Spotlight

1
Youthful King
Favorite

Has had plenty of racing but close to his best in winning a Class 4 handicap over 1m6f at Sandown in June, and then five days later was outclassed in the Queen Alexandra at Royal Ascot; only 4lb higher than at Sandown, though regular partner Jack Dace claimed 7lb that day.

Jockey: Marco GhianiTrainer: Luke Dace
2
Arqoob

Six-time winner who is thoroughly exposed; 3lb lower than for latest win on the AW in March and this would be easier than at Ascot last time; could go well if taking to the belated addition of blinkers.

Jockey: Harry DaviesTrainer: Lucy Wadham
3
Percy Shelley

All three wins were in France in 2022 but often thereabouts last summer for David O'Meara and a similar story since joining James Owen; has nothing in hand off this mark but was beaten by an in-form Prescott horse last time and can go close once more.

Jockey: Jason WatsonTrainer: James Owen
4
First Officer

Beat three rivals over 1m4f here in July since when he's been comfortably held; on the plus side, he might appreciate this belated return to 1m6f as he does have form over this far.

Jockey: David EganTrainer: Jane Chapple-Hyam
5
Curran

Good and bad off this sort of mark since his last win in June but that did come over C&D and returning here has to rate as a positive; he'll be up in the van which should also help.
