MEGALLAN made an impressive winning debut at Newmarket and will likely prove a warm order in this. Frankie takes over the reins for his only ride of the meeting and the Dewhurst Stakes entry is hard to oppose. Rich Waters showed little on his debut but Secret Protector also represents Godolphin and is a full brother to a Turf winner in North America. Beautiful Bertie is related to Listed winners while Ertikaaz is another to note along with Middle Park and Dewhurst entry Decisive Edge.
