London Protocol ran well when third at Redcar on his debut but has to give plenty of weight on today's terms to ISLAND FLAME. The latter has not been beaten far in either start to date including when fourth at Newmarket last time and Richard Fahey's filly is also preferred to Ressurreto and Lolamotion. Of the newcomers, Lady Chara may prove best of Ann Duffield's three runners but Star Focus is a half-sister to seven winners and could pose a bigger threat.
