East Cape comes here at the top of his form, but the race he won at Redcar was a soft event and he has more on here. Aleron makes his turf debut having done his running to date on the sand in Dubai. He is started at a lowly level and would not have to be anything special to make a winning start. The maiden Queens Musician has had plenty of chances and a bigger threat could prove to be Aberkeen, who at least knows how to win.
