The vote goes to MY AMBITION (nap), who is the sole course winner in the field and is about to hit peak form judged on his two efforts this term. Steadily progressive Newfangled is second choice, ahead of last year's third Darvel.[Steve Boow]

Latest effort took his AW record to 0-4; justified favouritism at Bath (1m, good to firm) in most recent turf attempt and finished third off this mark in this race last year; should be involved.
Most wins at Brighton but hasn't shown his best form in two starts there this season; only midfield in this contest 12 months ago and isn't the percentage call.
Ex-Irish maiden who has very weak claims on his middle-distance form for current stable; chance depends on whether the drop back to 1m prompts a resurgence.
Dual AW winner for previous yard and placed a few times in that sphere for current stable; 0-9 on grass and ran below par in most recent turf attempt; not fully convincing.
Maiden whose AW form since November features a few creditable efforts, keeping-on third at Kempton (1m) most recently; frame possibilities, provided he's as effective back on turf.
Successful on turf in 2020 and AW in 2021; absent since finishing fifth (off 10lb higher) in this race three years ago; the betting may prove best guide to expectations.
Solid operator who has form figures of 12112321, mostly on AW, since last July; good second in last turf attempt; justified favouritism at Lingfield (1m) most recently; shortlisted.
Five turf wins, the most recent off this mark at Bath (1m, good) last September; attractively weighted and is interesting back in this sphere with AW reappearance under his belt.
Won off a similar mark last May but had the benefit of recent match practice, which he now lacks having been absent for eight months; market may offer further guidance.
All wins on Wolverhampton AW; below form returned to grass last time, taking record in this sphere to 0-15; well treated on best turf efforts but others have less to prove.
Owned by Andrew Balding, trained by Simon Hodgson; hasn't made much of a splash in three AW events but may do better now handicapping; market support should be noted.
Suited by good ground or firmer; three-time winner at Bath and ran creditably (close second) there last time, improving on reappearance effort; scored over this C&D early in career; respected.
All wins in Class 6 but has been placed at this better level, including off higher marks; each-way possibilities, provided he returns from a five-month break in top form.
Only 1-35, the win on AW in January; however, what she lacks in strike-rate she makes up for in consistency and, off bottom weight, again looks likely to go well.
