The Johnston and Gosden stables are both doubly represented in this. Capital Theory was fourth in a valuable maiden at York after a debut third at Goodwood and is preferred to Treble Joy of the former’s pair but all eyes will be on the latter’s FRANTASTIC. He is a full brother to the yard’s brilliant Group 1 winner Cracksman and that one made a winning start as a two-year-old. Israr is also bred to be useful while Shabbab has produced a couple of decent efforts and Shut Up Michael was third at Sandown last month with Tangled Words another likely improver.
