The going is Good To Soft.
No specific going preferences noted for the runners.
Has gained all eight domestic wins at Chester, the most recent on penultimate start; Epsom is an unknown and he's on a difficult mark, conceding weight all round to boot.
Useful sort whose latest effort is best forgiven (chance compromised by early trouble); however, he has something to prove away from Newmarket, where most of his turf form lies.
Well suited by soft/good to soft ground; has a record of 3-4 since wearing cheekpieces, most recently winning at Doncaster (6f) ten weeks ago; respected in the retained headgear, with further progress possible.
Form has dipped in last two starts, taking record for current yard to 0-5; doesn't look as if he's about to prevail in this warm affair.
Acts on any ground; ran okay behind younger rivals at Newmarket last time; losing run is mounting up but he has been placed in this race twice, finishing second in 2023 and third in 2024; again has each-way hopes.
