Green Door was competing without success at Meydan earlier this year and was third off today's mark in last year's renewal. It's been a while since the latter's stablemate MOVE IN TIME ran in a handicap but he was beaten only a short-head at York the last time he did. Robert Cowell's charge has the beating of Monsieur Joe, Caspian Prince and Humidor on running at Longchamp in October so gets the nod. The latter won in heavy ground at Epsom last term and could go well while Ascot Listed winner Dutch Masterpiece handles the going and may also figure on his reappearance.
