Warcrown started favourite on his debut at Goodwood in July but lost all chance at the start. He reappeared at Newcastle the following month where he started odds on but faded over that 7f trip on soft ground. He's obviously well-regarded and looks best of those with experience but there are a couple of nicely-bred newcomers with real potential. Bryer is a half-brother to winning sprinter League Champion and a Group-placed performer in France and will attract support but it's the pedigree of SWNYMOR that catches the eye. He's by Dylan Thomas and the first foal of a mare who won over 1m3f. He'll be suited by further in time but this extended mile looks just right for his debut and he's handed the vote.
