Silvestre De Sousa has some good rides on the card after travelling on from Royal Ascot and MEDBURN DREAM (NAP) is a strong fancy to make the journey worthwhile. The pair teamed up when a good second at Goodwood and this looks a weaker contest. This is Suqoor's trip and he continues to suggest a win is nigh as he's rated 8lb lower on Turf than the all-weather but he'll find the selection tough to overcome. Majestic Moon and Palawan enter the equation on the back of better efforts last time but Plucky Dip needs to put a poor recent run behind him prior to which he'd scored over a furlong shorter on the all-weather.
