Gordon Lord Byron is in line to try to recapture his 32Red Sprint Cup crown at Haydock on Saturday.

Tom Hogan's stable star was successful in 2013 and is one of 19 horses left in the six-furlong showpiece at the five-day confirmation stage.

Eddie Lynam's veteran Sole Power and the Joe Murphy-trained three-year-old Only Mine are the other Irish possibles, while Dancing Star and Mehronissa have been supplemented.

The Andrew Balding-trained Dancing Star booked her place in the Group 1 with a clear-cut victory in the Stewards' Cup, and Ed Vaughan's Mehronissa came into the reckoning by winning the Listed Flying Fillies' Stakes at Pontefract last month.

July Cup winner Limato may take his chance if trainer Henry Candy considers the ground too quick for last year's victor Twilight Son.

"If it came up too firm for Twilight Son and if Limato looked in the sort of form that he could cope with it, then he would run," said the Wantage handler. "It would be the closest between races that he's ever attempted. He's in good form."

The Charlie Hills-trained Magical Memory is likely to try again after just being touched off in third place 12 months ago.

Strath Burn, who was only beaten a short head by Twilight Son when second in 2015 for Hills, is now with trainer Robert Cowell.

Karl Burke's Commonwealth Cup winner Quiet Reflection is set to take her chance, while James Fanshawe's The Tin Man is an interesting contender.

The others in the mix are Goken, Suedois, Ajaya, Donjuan Triumphant, Kachy, Mr Lupton, Divine and Jane's Memory.
