Al Waqidi
2-2 for Charlie Appleby, the first win coming here (8.6f) in November 2020 and the second when just getting the better of the subsequent Group 1 winner Scope at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm) in April 2021; has undergone wind surgery and been gelded since and, having been picked up for 12,000gns in September, he returns for his new yard in a tongue-tie; the market should be most revealing.

Twilight Diamond
Twilight Son gelding; £52,000 yearling; brother to Group-placed 5f/6f winner Twilight Calls (RPR 115), closely related to Greek 5.5f-6.5f winner Boundless; dam placed 6f/7f 2yo (80), closely related to 1m/1m1f Group 3 winner Kick On and 5.5f Listed winner Sabratah; enough in his pedigree to make him worth monitoring in the market on belated debut, especially in relation to stablemate Toralou.

Bear Rock
Has shown ability on Tapeta as when runner-up here (7f) in her last two starts; BHA-rated just 65 and far from solid, but her guaranteed fitness should count for something in this field.

Toralou
Sent off 15-2 for her Haydock debut (6f, good to soft) in July 2023 and only found a subsequent dual Group 3 winner half a length too strong; not seen since but respected, especially if positive in the market; half sister to an AW winner.
