Trumpet Major was sent off favourite for the Irish 2000 Guineas on his last start in May and should make a bold bid in this lesser contest, despite the penalty. Richard Hannon also runs the tough and consistent Coupe De Ville while Aljamaaheer has to go on the short-list after his third in the Jersey Stakes. Archbishop was second in this grade at Chantilly in June and may still be improving and a case can also be made for Stipulate, who may not quite have got home over 1m2f at Royal Ascot but still has the beating of Takes Of Grimm on that run. The one to beat, however, should be GREGORIAN who followed up his third in the St James's Palace Stakes with another excellent run in the Group 1 Jean Prat at Chantilly and deserves a change of luck. Ewell Place is heading in the right direction but will need another career-best effort to get involved here.
