St Barths, a Cadeaux Genereux colt out of a Green Desert mare, may well prove the pick of the newcomers but those with experience have already shown useful form. Liebesziel is probably worth opposing again but Richard Hannon's North Star Boy was only beaten a head on his debut at Goodwood and BAYLEYF caught the eye on his introduction at Folkestone. Very green that day, John Best's son of Kheleyf can only improve for the experience and the third Choice Of Remark is a useful yardstick - he is fancied to go one better today.
