Verdict
Red Refraction should make another bold bid after scoring at Goodwood given a rise in the weights is negated by Cam Hardie's allowance. Modern Tutor has a shout on his best form of last season but hasn't raced since October. SENAFE was highly-regarded last year and finished third in the German 1000 Guineas. She's tumbled down the weights since then and may well come out best back in handicap company today. Tellovoi has struggled to make his mark in this grade while Mezmaar was a promising two -year-old but has raced just the once since 2011.
