Nanga Parbat hasn’t been beaten far in any of his three runs to date and will be hard to keep out of the frame again but he was behind Majestic Newlaw at Windsor last time and possibly lacks the scope of ANCESTRAL LAND (NAP). The latter’s second at Windsor in June is working out really well as the third and fourth have won since and the winner was second in the Richmond Stakes at Goodwood in July. Zoology is a half-brother to the speedy Instinctive Move and looks the pick of the newcomers.
