Has made significant progress in each of his 3 runs so far, running to a high level when a
ready winner in listed company at Ascot in July. That is comfortably the best form on offer in
this fairly weak looking listed event and he will be very hard to beat despite being handed a
penalty.
Stepping up to a mile for the first time which will be sure to suit this smart looking grandson
of Dubawi. He can notch up another victory here to make it 4-4. Cannot oppose in this field.
This 3 year old son of Frankel showed ability at 2 years of age last season where he opened
his account in commanding fashion in novice company here at Haydock. He then overcame
the rise in class in a C&D listed event at this meeting 12 months ago.
Not seen since but has the scope to make for a better 3 year old moving forwards in his
career. Has course form and last two wins came over a mile so the trip will not be an issue.
An each way contender but has the potential to go closer.
Has only won once from 7 career starts so far but that came in a Class 2 event at Goodwood
last year. Has run at this trip before so that will not be an issue for this 3 year old colt.
Was a neck behind fellow rival Adjuvant last time out at York but 5 lengths behind the
winner Soulcombe. Kept on to finish fourth inside the final 100 yards but will have to come
on from that to challenge here. Possibilities.
Has won three of four starts since blinkered and was slowly away in all of them. He shaped
well in defeat at Glorious Goodwood and left a very telling impression when upped to 1m6f
in the Melrose at York two weeks ago.
This 3 year old son of Frankel cut his way through the field to lead over 1f out and soon
cleared away to win by just over 4l eased down, therefore he has been raised 14lb since but
he looked pretty special that day and that makes him an exciting individual. Won at the
same trip and looks to have a great chance of backing last time out up, very highly
respected.

He ran well back to form with a great effort when landing a second successive win in the
Wokingham Handicap at Royal Ascot. Put in a more than acceptable effort when splitting
Minzaal and Naval Crown (the two market leaders) in the Prix Maurice de Gheest and the
City Of York last time out simply was not run to suit this horse.
He tends to be a hold-up horse and will likely still be in fairly decent form if he gets the luck
of the race this time round. Has to be respected.
A 5f specialist who was won over the distance before when on good and good to firm
ground. With conditions looking to suit, he is sure to go very well here with the latest from
shown.
Finished third and a close second last time out in decent company and jockey that day,
Rossa Ryan said the horse hung left meaning if he has learnt from that he is sure to be bang
there this time round. Hollie Doyle gets the ride, strongly fancied.
