SAIGON is clear on official ratings and looks the likely winner if staying the extra furlong. His running style suggests he will, as he was doing all his best work at the finish in the Middle Park at Newmarket a fortnight ago when beaten only a length and a half in sixth. Tell Dad won a valuable sales races at HQ before finishing runner-up in a similar event at the same track last time and had Mehdi behind on both occasions, while Irish raider Strait Of Zanzibar will appreciate the faster ground after his sixth in the Group 1 National Stakes at the Curragh last month. The rest have a bit of catching up to do, though Graphic and Red Art should be thereabouts.
