Storm King made all when beating subsequent winner Energia Fox over course and distance last month and kept on well when making much of the running in a better race next time at Epsom. Lorelina did well last season but has been looking a few pounds too high so far this term. Buonarroti is hard to catch right and Maraakib remains out of sorts but Al Destoor will have benefited from his fourth at Newcastle. JABBAAR was only headed close home at Redcar last month and could go one better today if delivered late.
