Windsor Cross is best watched on his first run on Turf and this looks a little too competitive for Kraka and Bezos. KYLLACHY DRAGON is almost guaranteed to run his race again and Iain Jardine’s gelding can finally get his head in front where it matters. Captain Jameson steps up a furlong but is eased in grade and Viscount Loftus was beaten under a lengths off this mark at Ayr nine days ago. Blackheath was too keen over a mile last time at Chelmsford but may be a couple of pounds too high back on Turf. Humble Gratitude has yet to strike form so far this term.
