Prince Vector has had plenty of chances and is getting very expensive to follow. He should be in the frame again but we like the look of the newcomer Money Market. Pugilist is also expected to be fighting for a place. Richard Hannon's gelding is superbly bred by Machiavellian out of a Northern Baby mare, making him a full-brother to the very smart Phantom Gold. The trip may possibly be slightly on the short side but unless the betting suggests otherwise, he does look the one to be on. Prince Victor chased home Scriptwriter in a Windsor handicap last time and has to be feared back in maiden company. Pugilist almost got his head in front at Bath last time and he will not go down without a fight. Of the others Borouj has shown plenty of ability and should be involved in the finish, but for winner we return to Money Market.
