London had three runs over 7f last summer but the Galileo colt was always likely to be suited by middle-distances. His stable also run another son of Galileo in New Millennium, who is related to numerous winners around this trip, and the brilliant Zenyatta's full-brother DE CORONADO, who has a Group 3 entry next month and gets the nod with Ryan Moore booked. Twilight Payment takes a big drop in trip after an excellent run in the Queen's Vase behind O'Brien's Sword Fighter and looks the main threat to the Ballydoyle trio though the filly Nonetheless ran really well on her debut here in May.
