Charlie Appleby won this with the high-class Hurricane Lane last year and PERSEUS WAY made a winning debut when scoring at Leicester. He may well be good enough to defy a penalty and is preferred to stablemate Walk Of Stars. Lady Hamilton is a third Godolphin runner out of a Listed winner in France while King Of Ice and The Gadget Man are likely improvers. Nahri cost a whopping 340,000gns as a foal and is a newcomer to note.
