IMTIYAAZ won at Ripon before running well again for second in a Class 2 sprint at York. This is easier and she is reunited with winning partner Andrea Atzeni. Lexington Place is also dropped in class and has claims along with Perfect Muse, a runner-up in this grade at Ascot last time with first-time blinkers applied today. Top Boy is usually thereabouts without being quite good enough off his current mark but Midlander has a shout if rediscovering his best form of earlier in the year. Judicial was progressive last season and has more scope than most, as does the lightly-raced Gurkha Friend.
