#	Horse	Jockey / Trainer	Wt	Gear	Form	OR	RPR	TS	Last	Crs	Dst	Val	Scr	EW	Odds
9 (3)	My Cloud Bay J:Kaiya Fraser T:Roger Varian	J:Kaiya Fraser T:Roger Varian	125	—	221-	80	103	82	183d	—	—	+3	32.9	0.47/1	15/8 35%
Form figures read 221; bred to rate higher still and take well to Ascot; respected
2 (8)	Toimy Son Bay J:Warren Fentiman(5) T:David Menuisier	J:Warren Fentiman(5) T:David Menuisier	141	—	1436-0	96	101	91	32d	—	—	-1	16.5	1.00/1	4/1 20%
Successful in last year's Golden Mile; has possibilities in this lower grade
6 (7)	Mythical Guest Bay J:Harry Burns T:George Margarson	J:Harry Burns T:George Margarson	129	—	7840-3	84	109	97	13d	—	—	+2	15.5	1.63/1	13/2 13%
May be of greater interest when back over 1m2f; both wins at that distance
4 (6)	Great Acclaim Bay J:Jack Nicholls(7) T:Eve Johnson Houghton	J:Jack Nicholls(7) T:Eve Johnson Houghton	136	—	1120-0	91	101	86	18d	—	—	+4	12.6	2.50/1	10/1 9%
Duck eggs in major handicaps the last twice; generally progressive otherwise
3 (10)	Son Bay J:Joe Leavy T:Richard Hannon	J:Joe Leavy T:Richard Hannon	140	—	4607-0	95	102	79	18d	—	—	+5	13.6	2.50/1	10/1 9%
Has several pieces of Group form; interesting off current mark at this level
1 (4)	Talis Evolvere Bay J:Tyrese Cameron(7) T:Richard Hannon	J:Tyrese Cameron(7) T:Richard Hannon	142	—	9501-8	97	104	79	61d	—	0W/1P 1 run	+6	13.9	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Has a better strike-rate on AW than on turf but this is a drop back in class
7 (2)	Yantarni Chestnut J:Brandon Wilkie T:Ian Williams	J:Brandon Wilkie T:Ian Williams	125	t	8-0068	80	106	98	31d	—	—	+3	9.2	3.50/1	14/1 7%
Good second in last year's Shergar Cup Mile here; not in the same form since
5 (1)	Brasil Power Bay J:Grace McEntee T:George Boughey	J:Grace McEntee T:George Boughey	129	tb	643532	84	100	62	23d	—	—	+12	18.1	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Recent AW form is respectable; however, still seeking first win on turf
8 (9)	Longhaired General Bay J:Phoebe Edwards(7) T:Craig Lidster	J:Phoebe Edwards(7) T:Craig Lidster	125	—	31-148	80	102	62	42d	—	—	+4	8.9	5.00/1	20/1 5%
0-5 on turf and faces a stiff-looking assignment back in this sphere
10 (5)	Lunario Grey J:Jack Dace(7) T:Luke Dace	J:Jack Dace(7) T:Luke Dace	121	tp	1365-5	76	101	97	29d	—	—	+3	7.7	5.50/1	22/1 4%
Still seeking first win above Class 5; on the plus side, he is nicely weighted
