2 (8)	Dashing Darcey Bay J:Silvestre De Sousa T:Roger Varian	J:Silvestre De Sousa T:Roger Varian	136	—	11-234	86	95	81	21d	—	—	-3	14	1.13/1	9/2 18%
Dual AW winner; in the frame in all three starts on turf but latest effort not working out
1 (5)	Cerulean Bay Bay J:Daniel Tudhope T:David O'Meara	J:Daniel Tudhope T:David O'Meara	137	—	16-438	87	95	69	14d	—	—	-5	15.4	0.83/1	10/3 23%
Hasn't enjoyed a clear run here in his last two starts; capable granted a bit more luck
6 (3)	Gressington Grey J:Callum Rodriguez T:Edward Bethell	J:Callum Rodriguez T:Edward Bethell	132	—	12-35	82	96	67	21d	—	—	-5	13.2	1.00/1	4/1 20%
Bit disappointing since returning and he was behind Dashing Darcey at Newmarket last time
3 (4)	Gunfighter Bay J:Oisin Murphy T:Hugo Palmer	J:Oisin Murphy T:Hugo Palmer	135	—	51-334	85	94	67	30d	—	—	0	12.1	1.75/1	7/1 13%
Dual AW winner; 7.6f seemed to stretch him last time so longer trip has to be a concern
4 (1)	New Chelsea Bay J:Hector Crouch T:Ralph Beckett	J:Hector Crouch T:Ralph Beckett	134	—	3242-7	84	94	73	7d	—	—	+2	11	2.25/1	9/1 10%
Met all sorts of trouble on Lingfield return; stable won this for the same owners in 2022
7 (7)	Louis Quatorze Chestnut J:Benoit De La Sayette T:David Menuisier	J:Benoit De La Sayette T:David Menuisier	132	h	5301-7	82	91	66	71d	—	—	+2	10.2	2.50/1	10/1 9%
Makes handicap debut having been well held in a Listed race last time; 1-1 in the hood
8 (9)	Secret World Grey J:Joe Fanning T:Charlie Johnston	J:Joe Fanning T:Charlie Johnston	130	—	21-3	80	94	68	19d	—	—	+4	12.9	2.75/1	11/1 8%
1m should be within range and she's still open to improvement on handicap debut
5 (6)	How's The Guvnor Bay J:Richard Kingscote T:Clive Cox	J:Richard Kingscote T:Clive Cox	133	—	21005-	83	92	77	241d	—	0W/0P 1 run	+9	13.6	4.00/1	16/1 6%
Returns from eight months off having been gelded and the market may be revealing
9 (2)	Invincible Aura Bay J:Rossa Ryan T:Marco Botti	J:Rossa Ryan T:Marco Botti	127	—	3-1405	77	90	32	42d	—	—	+6	9.9	6.25/1	25/1 4%
Exposed compared to these rivals and his last two efforts leave plenty to be desired
