Sole Power won the King's Stand Stakes here in 2013 and 2014 but has been looking a shadow of his former self this year and was behind Iffranesia in the Flying Five at the Curragh last month. It's difficult to know what to expect from Norwegian raider Easy Road but he has won a Group 3 and was successful at Doncaster around this time last year. Kimberella has been running really well in tough handicaps all summer and deserves a crack at this level but Double Up hasn't managed a win this year and was disappointing last time at Beverley when only third. PRICELESS showed a nice turn of foot to get back to winning ways at Doncaster. That was her first try over the minimum so there may be more to come and she can defy her penalty and beat the tough Willytheconqueror and veteran Medicean Man.
