Saborido has been in fine form on the all-weather, notching up a double over today's trip, and the unexposed Royal Warranty is open to further progress stepping up in distance after scoring at Kempton. See And Be Seen has claims on his recent victory in the Cesarewitch Trial at Newmarket but preference is for LE MAITRE CHAT (NAP). The latter looked unlucky when running into trouble at Ascot last time before staying on for third and can confirm that running with Snowy Dawn.
