Rated 94, BURJ cannot be seriously opposed. He never figured in the Group 2 Coventry Stakes at Ascot last time but won a novice event over 6f at Wolverhampton before that and can defy a penalty in this company. Treasure Quest went close over 6f here on his latest start but has plenty to find with the Godolphin entry on these terms and Mr Fox has shown little so far.
