After landing the 'Abbaye her in 2009, Total Gallery never recaptured his form last season and only had two rivals to beat on his reappearance. Stablemate MARCHAND D'OR loves this track and won this a year ago. He didn't have too much racing subsequently and is well up to repeating last year's success. Captain Dunne is very speedy but generally fails when sent into pattern race company and though Inxile is in great form having won two Listed contests in Ireland he is taking on better company here. Jonny Mudball was battling on at the finish behind Tangerine Trees in the Palace House Stakes but is better over an extra furlong. Prohibit, who wasn't far behind, had been running well in Dubai and is more likely to be suited by this fast track than Tom Dascombe's charge. Three-year-olds are always worth noting in sprints at this time of the year and C&D winner Kagura could perform best of the younger brigade.
