DEMONIC separated a couple of subsequent winners when third over track and trip on his reappearance. There should be much more to come from Sir Henry Cecil's Derby entry and he's preferred to stablemate Phosphorescence and the more likely danger Elkaayed. The latter steps up in distance for his seasonal debut and makes more appeal than Tinghir, who has three lengths to find with the selection on latest running. Don Padeja will improve for the outing while newcomers to note include Arab Spring, Fledged and Royal Flag, a half-brother to the top-class Farrh and entered in the Derby.
