Ran keen and was unable to land a blow at Musselburgh last time, beaten seven and a half lengths; returns to AW where the trainer has had success, effective at 6-7f on a sound surface, and held up as usual — but needs a sharper performance to feature, without a win in recent starts.

Wide and well beaten at Goodwood most recently, below normal form, Fanjove gets first-time blinkers on a return to AW; effective at 6-7f on this surface and there is more chance here than last time, but needs to demonstrate a significant improvement.

Without a win in recent starts, Saxon Prince was a little below form at Ripon last time at the longer trip; stays 7f and the likely pace will play to this runner's strengths, acts on AW, and reliable enough in form that a return from a short break here off the same sort of mark could see this runner go well.

Stamina has been questioned over 7f at Chester last time, beaten six and a quarter lengths, Elemma is a speed-bred type with a trainer who has a strong record in this type of race; wide draw to overcome, but pedigree all points to 5-6f rather than 7f, making this a risk at the trip.
