Dubai Status (USA) Went about his task well on his debut at Newmarket in July and stayed on to good effect in the closing stages The assistance of in-form Frankie Dettori is also a big plus and he looks the one to beat.
Flat Spin Took his time to get going on his debut, but finished full of running and no reason why he shouldn't go well again. Plenty of speed in his pedigree and he should give the principles something to think about.
Grampian Going the right way and took his maiden in convincing style at Newmarket last month. However this looks a tougher task and he will need to find a little more improvement to figure.
Henri Lebasque (IRE) Looked green in the early stages of his debut, but looked impressive once he got going. His pedigree suggest this distance should not be a problem and he is open to any amount of improvement, a market move would be significant.
Mr Sandancer Faded away tamely in the Solario Stakes at Sandown last time, but if he can be excused that effort (didn't handle the ground), it would be no surprise to see him bounce back here. Even so he has a lot to prove here.
Tumbleweed Charm (IRE) A little to prove after a disappointing effort in France last time, the step up in trip is also a slight worry.
Fight Your Corner Another who looks to have something to find here, and with his stable not really firing like they can he may be best watched for another day.
Hills of Gold Stable's has a fair record with newcomers but this son of Danehill looks to have no easy task for his racecourse debut.
