#	Horse	Jockey / Trainer	Wt	Gear	Form	OR	RPR	TS	Last	Crs	Dst	Val	Scr	EW	Odds
11 (5)	Lotus Rose Bay J:Jason Watson T:Roger Fell & Sean Murray	J:Jason Watson T:Roger Fell & Sean Murray	127	—	235553	59	81	73	5d	—	—	-6	10.9	1.00/1	4/1 20%
Expensive to follow this season but well treated and made the frame on previous run here
1 (7)	Secret Mistral Chestnut J:Jack Doughty(5) T:Tony Carroll	J:Jack Doughty(5) T:Tony Carroll	141	—	67-132	73	79	61	7d	—	—	-10	12.4	0.75/1	3/1 25%
Not particularly well drawn for her running style but by no means dismissed
5 (3)	Ecclesiastical Chestnut J:Jason Hart T:Tristan Davidson	J:Jason Hart T:Tristan Davidson	137	t	19-594	69	83	68	14d	—	—	-7	9.5	1.13/1	9/2 18%
Course winner and latest run here encouraging after getting pestered up front
3 (2)	Count d'Orsay Bay J:Sean Kirrane T:Tim Easterby	J:Sean Kirrane T:Tim Easterby	138	p	206240	70	82	69	1d	—	—	-7	13.7	0.88/1	7/2 22%
Ground softer than good would be preferred for him; soon struggling at York on Friday
12 (1)	Red Walls Bay J:Franny Norton T:Lisa Williamson	J:Franny Norton T:Lisa Williamson	121	—	474284	53	72	58	15d	—	—	-3	5.6	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Quick enough to exploit his low draw but he's never won a race on the grass
6 (10)	Bang On The Bell Bay J:Harrison Shaw T:J R Jenkins	J:Harrison Shaw T:J R Jenkins	137	b	175209	69	81	69	20d	—	—	+3	9	3.50/1	14/1 7%
Multiple winner, though seven of his nine wins have been on the AW and that's his scene
9 (8)	High Velocity Grey J:Sean D Bowen(3) T:David Loughnane	J:Sean D Bowen(3) T:David Loughnane	133	b	-05406	65	71	12	86d	—	—	0	5.1	4.00/1	16/1 6%
All his best form is on the AW and blew out last time on turf; more new headgear
4 (9)	Maharajas Express Chestnut J:Zak Wheatley(3) T:Patrick Morris	J:Zak Wheatley(3) T:Patrick Morris	138	b	136754	70	81	69	30d	—	—	+2	7	5.00/1	20/1 5%
Consistent sprinter for Jack Jones and last couple of runs for that yard were respectable
7 (4)	Rogue Thunder Chestnut J:Harry Burns(3) T:Patrick Morris	J:Harry Burns(3) T:Patrick Morris	137	—	-82606	69	80	7	15d	—	—	+4	7.1	8.25/1	33/1 3%
Wellbeing is an issue and so too his effectiveness at this distance
NR (12)	Habooba Chestnut J:Ray Dawson T:T J Kent	J:Ray Dawson T:T J Kent	140	tb	432061	72	80	49	23d	—	—	—	17.6	—	—
Made all at a strong pace over 6f at Kempton; drop to 5f is no concern but stall 12 is
NR (11)	Doctor Vuby Bay J:Joanna Mason T:Michael & David Easterby	J:Joanna Mason T:Michael & David Easterby	134	—	4-2205	70	80	28	42d	—	—	—	5	—	—
Easily his best form is on the AW and from a bad draw he's down the pecking order here
NR (6)	Object Bay J:Jack Garritty T:Tim Easterby	J:Jack Garritty T:Tim Easterby	132	p	25-144	64	82	60	39d	—	—	—	3.5	—	—
Seems to need softish ground these days and especially to defy his current mark
