Sovereign Debt has done well for Dandy Nicholls this year and makes a quick reappearance after landing a Group 3 at Tipperary last week, though was beaten by Balty Boys at Haydock earlier along with Hors De Combat. Mutakayyef was only beaten a neck over this trip at York in August and suffered the same fate over a furlong extra at Ayr last month. Decorated Knight has only won a maiden and a handicap so far and was firmly put in his place last time by Time Test and Custom Cut, though there is nothing of their calibre in this. WANNABE YOURS beat Hors De Combat in a Group 3 last year and was clear of the rest when beaten less than a length over 1m2f at Goodwood last time. That run signalled a return to form for John Gosden's colt, who should find this intermediate distance to his liking.
