Formscan - Up to 28 sprinters go to post for one of the most competitive races of the season and, with winners at 25/1 and 18/1 the last couple of years, anything seems possible. Qatar raider Dark Trooper holds obvious claims after his Wokingham Stakes second, but he races off a 3lb higher mark and may have to settle for a place. PUROSANGUE makes his handicap debut on his 11th start and, after a second in the Group 3 Coral Charge at Sandown where beaten less than a length, he looks the likeliest winner if he can repeat that form at this level. He is due to go up 4lb in the near future, suggesting he has every chance here, while Cover Up and Billyjoh head a long list of others to at least consider.
