The betting suggested HOMAGE (NAP) would make a bold bid on his seasonal debut at Windsor and he duly obliged with a cosy win. Ryan Moore keeps the partnership intact and he can go in again. Buckstay has been upped 6lb for a narrow-margin defeat at Goodwood but is still improving while Monsieur Chevalier should go well again after a good effort in a classified event at Lingfield. Both Billingsgate and Musaddas have a shout for Godolphin and the selection's stablemate Sloane Avenue has plenty of scope.
