Rhythmic Intent won over a longer trip on fast ground here last month and Aaddeey also drops back down in distance with a tongue-tie applied. Soft going is a worry for Dark Jedi but the returning King Of The South is interesting debuting on Turf having won three of his nine starts on the all-weather. APPARATE has been hard to keep right having last raced back in May but won here last year and Roger Varian’s charge still has scope for further improvement. Cockalorum and United Front step up in distance.
