The fast-improving Go Dan Go should make a bold bid to complete his hat-trick here, despite another 6lb rise. Brighton scorer Chevallier is probably also heading in the right direction but Golden Spun didn't shown much on his comeback here, though still beat the disappointing Danot. Godolphin has two entries running for different trainers but NEW STRATEGY looks the number one ahead of top weight Adelasia. James Doyle's mount only gave best close home on his reappearance over a mile at Epsom and the drop in distance looks to be in his favour. Wiener Valkyrie should win more races this term and he makes more appeal than the maidens Pensax Boy and My Dream Boat in this.
