Chance is starting to slip down the weights again while Dandy Maestro was a very easy winner here in the spring, though is 16lb higher now. REBEL TERRITORY (NAP) was prominent for a long way in the Golden Mile at Goodwood and could be the one to beat on that form, though Atrium has been going well at Ascot this year. Auditor steps up to a mile after two wins over 7f at Newmarket but stamina will have to be taken on trust. Koy Koy is effective over this trip, however, while any give in the ground will suit Aldhaja as he won on soft going at Haydock in May.
