A large element of guesswork involved as regards the testing ground, but Beyond Conceit was placed over a mile here in August and will appreciate the longer trip. SAMBA KING will have come on for his debut at Goodwood where he caught the eye staying on well in the soft going to take fifth place. Frankie rides him rather than My Destination and the Godolphin colt gets the nod. There was cut in the ground when No Time To Lose finished third at Bath and he may well improve past the more exposed Juno The Muffinman and better is also expected from Gucci D'Oro.
