6 (5)	Notre Maison Bay J:Rossa Ryan T:Stuart Kittow	J:Rossa Ryan T:Stuart Kittow	133	v	7-4361	58	74	62	25d	—	—	-14	8.7	0.75/1	3/1 25%
Exploded back to form in a first-time visor latest; is 7lb higher here, so has more on
7 (4)	Secret Handsheikh Bay J:Callum Hutchinson(3) T:John Gallagher	J:Callum Hutchinson(3) T:John Gallagher	131	v	659624	56	69	57	5d	—	—	-7	10	1.25/1	5/1 17%
Handicapper quick to ease off (9lb better off with Notre Maison than at Windsor); player
1 (9)	The Defiant Bay J:Oisin Murphy T:Luke Dace	J:Oisin Murphy T:Luke Dace	136	tp	356828	61	76	66	11d	—	—	-4	10.3	1.50/1	6/1 14%
Back on his last winning mark under Oisin Murphy (0-5 for yard) but others look stronger
2 (8)	Symbol Of Hope Bay J:David Probert T:John & Rhys Flint	J:David Probert T:John & Rhys Flint	135	p	-74164	60	73	51	30d	—	—	-2	11.1	1.75/1	7/1 13%
Trip/ground fine but probably not optimal and there's not much wiggle room off this mark
5 (6)	Greatest Time Brown J:George Downing T:David Evans	J:George Downing T:David Evans	133	—	-80875	58	72	58	23d	—	—	-5	4.9	2.25/1	9/1 10%
Shaped nicely again last time and is one of the more interesting runners dropped 2lb
3 (2)	Bama Lama Chestnut J:Oliver Searle(5) T:Rod Millman	J:Oliver Searle(5) T:Rod Millman	134	—	331321	59	72	65	14d	—	—	+14	23.7	2.13/1	17/2 11%
Has to defy another career-high mark, upped 2lb, and slower ground would have been ideal
4 (3)	Under Curfew Chestnut J:Jack Doughty(5) T:Tony Carroll	J:Jack Doughty(5) T:Tony Carroll	134	—	4-5164	59	73	58	16d	—	—	-3	4.4	2.75/1	11/1 8%
Won't mind the return to a stiffer 5f or faster ground; no obvious reason he won't go well
9 (10)	Atty's Edge Bay J:Gina Mangan(3) T:Christopher Mason	J:Gina Mangan(3) T:Christopher Mason	125	—	535-68	50	75	29	39d	—	—	-6	2.1	3.00/1	12/1 8%
On the downgrade for a while; didn't build on a fair comeback in the spring last time
10 (1)	Katar Bay J:Hayley Turner T:Richenda Ford	J:Hayley Turner T:Richenda Ford	123	p	977823	48	70	55	21d	—	—	+3	7.7	5.50/1	22/1 4%
Regressive maiden; can blow the start and/or pull hard and has had 33 cracks at it now
8 (7)	Won't Stand Down Chestnut J:Luke Morris T:Rod Millman	J:Luke Morris T:Rod Millman	127	—	90-55	52	70	54	71d	—	—	-2	1.3	12.50/1	50/1 2%
Again well held on her handicap debut in the spring; Bama Lama is her yard's best chance
