Profile is up and down but he has form here and could be a major player.
6 (10)	Maghlaak b Dane O'Neill · Charles Hills	Dane O'Neill · Charles Hills	125	—	311-	86	103	58	242d	—	—	+15	32.5	7/2 22%
Made his debut only last August and this 4yo could be a sharp improver this campaign.
3 (2)	Honiton gr Robert Havlin · John & Thady Gosden	Robert Havlin · John & Thady Gosden	132	—	32310-	93	109	97	322d	—	—	+9	26.4	9/2 18%
Off since disappointing at Royal Ascot; went into that looking very progressive.
2 (7)	Bad Company b Benoit De La Sayette(3) · Jim Boyle	Benoit De La Sayette(3) · Jim Boyle	135	p	222-81	96	108	89	11d	—	—	+3	14.8	11/2 15%
Won under a positive ride at Epsom when everything was in his favour; up 5lb.
8 (8)	Time Interval b William Cox · John Flint	William Cox · John Flint	121	—	3178-2	82	106	87	14d	—	—	+4	16.6	11/2 15%
Very nearly sprung a 100-1 surprise from the front on soft ground at Newbury on return.
NR (4)	Stay Well b Richard Kingscote · Hughie Morrison	Richard Kingscote · Hughie Morrison	135	h	22955-	96	108	94	210d	—	—	+6	17.1	13/2 13%
Never really progressed after finishing second in last summer's Zetland Gold Cup at Redcar
9 (5)	Sweet Reward b George Rooke · Jonathan Portman	George Rooke · Jonathan Portman	120	—	4250-8	81	110	106	14d	—	—	+1	10.4	9 11%
Third in this last year after a quiet reappearance, so not without hope after the same.
5 (3)	Aussie Banker b David Probert · Richard Hughes	David Probert · Richard Hughes	127	—	411-22	88	108	64	29d	—	—	+3	12	17/2 11%
Has something to prove off this mark and in this grade back on grass.
NR (6)	Youthful King b J F Egan · Luke Dace	J F Egan · Luke Dace	119	—	71137-	80	106	95	260d	—	—	+15	18.7	22 5%
Perhaps on a tough mark after last year's progress but he has been gelded.
4 (9)	Wilkie ch Rob Hornby · John Butler	Rob Hornby · John Butler	129	—	53/50-	90	105	53	182d	—	—	+8	10.7	40 3%
Winner in France; indifferent start in Britain and best watched after his layoff.
