Having been in good form on the Newcastle Tapeta since joining David Thompson, CORAMENTO earns the vote ahead of Mayo County, who has also been running well on AW. Ideal Guest and Queens Road Revue are other possible players.[Ben Hutton]

Runner-up at Leicester (6f, good) last month in first-time hood (retained since) and fair fifth of 14 there (6f, good to firm) since; his last win came over 7f (soft) and he could be a contender now back up in trip.
Won at Newcastle (6f, AW) in March and has made the frame the next twice (6f/7f, AW); hasn't shone on her two previous runs on turf but there have been excuses and she's entitled to respect.
His form has gone the wrong way since he won at Haydock (7f, good) last July but he's now 10lb lower and took a step back in the right direction when fifth at Leicester (7f, good to firm) latest; not ruled out each-way.
Inconsistent 4yo; well beaten at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) a fortnight ago, but that step up in trip may not have suited; went close at Newcastle (1m, AW) previously and ran well over C&D last May; not written off.
Creditable fourth of seven at Haydock (7f, good) last July in a first-time hood (retained since) and now 3lb lower, but two lesser followed and she needs to get back on track on her first outing since last September.
4yo who is very lightly raced; however, he's yet to threaten and has been soundly beaten in both handicaps, the latest at Newcastle (7f, AW) two months ago when back from some more time off; a tongue-tie goes on.
Improved form when winning on stable debut at Newcastle (1m, AW) in March and good third there (1m, AW) since when hinting he could be suited by this drop back to 7f; could play a leading role if the return to turf isn't an issue (well beaten on sole previous run on grass).
8yo who is without a win since July 2023 but he ran some good races last year (including over 7f) and was a creditable second of six at Hamilton (7f, good to firm) ten days ago; could be in the shake-up.
