Famous Warrior has won five times in his career but generally needs a run to bring him to his peak. Nathr scoed at Leicester for Charles Hills and very nearly doubled his tally at Al Ain in March but Alraased hasn't shown much since scoring twice for John Dunlop in 2012. TIDES RISE showed plenty of promise in four starts at Chantilly and could have got in lightly. This doesn't look the toughest of races and he's taken to make a successful reappearance. Ramonti Flash is inconsistent he's perfectly capable of winning this at his best and has won first-time-back here in the past while Court Room landed a Newbury maiden last October but hasn't shown much in two starts for new connections.
