Mutamam Smart and genuine middle-distance campaigner who took this event last term; returned as good as ever after long break to lift Princess Of Wales' Stakes at Newmarket before below par effort in King George; worth chancing he can bounce back despite 5lb penalty.
Delius (USA) Lightly-raced type but advertised his well being with easy success in conditions' event at Windsor latest; more required here but remains unexposed and won't be disgraced.
King O' The Mana (IRE) Developed into smart type last term but held by Mutamam on Ascot Group 3 form last September; has had his training problems and may struggle in this company.
Perfect Sunday (USA) Progressive middle-distance performer (won Derby Trial at Lingfield and fair sixth in Derby); below his best at Goodwood latest but this front runner will appreciate dominating small field and will take plenty of pegging back on a track that will suit.
