6 (4)	Shout Bay J:Oisin Murphy T:Simon & Ed Crisford	J:Oisin Murphy T:Simon & Ed Crisford	128	—	714-90	99	117	97	26d	—	—	-2	18	0.88/1	7/2 22%
Progressive 3yo last season; not written off but underwhelming in the Spring Cup last time
3 (6)	Cerulean Bay Bay J:Daniel Tudhope T:David O'Meara	J:Daniel Tudhope T:David O'Meara	132	—	1103-4	103	117	112	19d	—	—	+5	16.6	1.50/1	6/1 14%
Progressive last term and kept on well for close 4th over 7f on reappearance; solid claims
17 (15)	Point Of Contact Bay J:Marco Ghiani T:Andrew Balding	J:Marco Ghiani T:Andrew Balding	116	—	24656-	87	117	104	243d	—	—	+4	12.6	2.25/1	9/1 10%
Lightly raced 4yo who has been gelded and may have more to offer for his good yard
1 (1)	Point Lynas Bay J:Callum Rodriguez T:Edward Bethell	J:Callum Rodriguez T:Edward Bethell	138	h	4267-9	109	117	108	89d	—	—	+10	16.7	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Strong record at York, including in this race; capable of very bold bid from inside stall
4 (7)	Vafortino Bay J:Billy Loughnane T:Charlie Fellowes	J:Billy Loughnane T:Charlie Fellowes	132	—	7-4507	103	118	109	69d	—	—	+9	15	3.00/1	12/1 8%
8yo who is without a win since December but is worth a second look in view of York form
9 (2)	Mirsky Chestnut J:Mark Winn T:David O'Meara	J:Mark Winn T:David O'Meara	125	—	109-31	96	119	91	12d	—	—	+7	13.4	2.75/1	11/1 8%

Did it cosily at Pontefract last time and 4lb rise may not stop this thriving 6yo
18 (19)	Maybe Not Bay J:Saffie Osborne T:Ralph Beckett	J:Saffie Osborne T:Ralph Beckett	115	—	21214-	86	116	101	204d	—	—	+19	23.7	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Three wins last June-September along with a big run here; she's one to consider
8 (17)	First Principle Bay J:Ryan Moore T:William Haggas	J:Ryan Moore T:William Haggas	125	t	12-210	96	117	88	41d	—	—	+8	12.7	4.50/1	18/1 5%
AW improvement stalled last time but he remains lightly raced and is not discounted
2 (11)	Diego Ventura Bay J:James Doyle T:Hamad Al Jehani	J:James Doyle T:Hamad Al Jehani	135	—	2533-6	106	116	93	32d	—	—	+9	15.9	5.50/1	22/1 4%

Best form has come on soft ground; midfield in Lincoln on reappearance; others appeal more
5 (9)	Godwinson Bay J:George Bass T:Jack Channon	J:George Bass T:Jack Channon	131	—	11500-	102	114	91	208d	—	—	+15	19.1	5.50/1	22/1 4%
Last year's Lincoln winner but went off the boil later in the season; has changed yards
15 (8)	Old Cock Bay J:Cam Hardie T:Antony Brittain	J:Cam Hardie T:Antony Brittain	120	t	0140-0	91	118	88	26d	—	—	+8	11	8.25/1	33/1 3%
