Greatness Awaits is not really bred for this trip but won twice on soft going over a mile as a two-year-old so will handle the going. They Don't Know has found only one too good in his last five starts but that first victory continues to elude Darryll Holland’s gelding, who steps up in distance. AL AZHAR beat last week’s Epsom winner Swilcan Bridge at Goodwood before failing to land the odds at Leicester. That latest third has been franked and Marcus Tregoning’s charge can get back on track here. Rendition would require improvement to win off his current mark.
