Global Genius looks good here, but he faces a number of interesting newcomers, including Amwaal, Emirates Skyline, Roll The Dice and Stage Gift. Global Genius sets the standard here following his very good second in the Chesham Stakes. However, he faces a number of interesting newcomers, including Amwaal, a half-brother to Bahri and Bahhare. Dark Planet will have to show more than on its debut, while Godolphin's Emirates Skyline is well-related and also attracts interest. Mick Channon's Fire Two is another to consider, as is Navajo Warrior, who is related to a number of winners, while Roll The Dice ran with promise behind Gramm at Sandown last time. James Fanshawe's Southport Star is another to keep an eye on, as is Sir Michael Stoute's Stage Gift. However, Global Genius gets the call.
