Defending men's champion Connor Swift (Team Arkéa-Samsic) is down to take to the start line in the race, alongside Mark Cavendish (Team Dimension Data) and Hugh Carthy (EF Education First).

Other riders to look out for include 2016 winner Adam Blythe (Lotto Soudal), plus 2012 champion Ian Stannard (Team Ineos).

In the women's road race, reigning champion Jessica Roberts (Team Breeze) will be absent, as will four-time winner Lizzie Deignan (Trek-Segafredo).

The only previous winner listed to start alongside the women is Hannah Barnes (Canyon-SRAM), who won in Stockton in 2016. However, she'll face competition from  Katie Archibald (Team HUUB), multiple Paralympic champion Dame Sarah Storey (Storey Racing) plus Olympic champion Elinor Barker (Drops).

In the time trial, again Barnes is a name to watch, as is sister and team mate Alice - who was second last year, plus Neah Evans (Team HUUB) who rounded off the podium in 2018.

The men's time trial features last year's second and third placed riders, Harry Tanfield and Alex Dowsett (both Katusha-Alpecin), whilst defending champ Geraint Thomas (Team Ineos) will be missing this one out as he recovers from his Tour de Suisse crash ahead of the Tour de France.
