Devilish Guest was running on well at Newbury and could feature here and the Richard Hannon colts Himself and Opening Time are both expected to build on solid debuts, but ISOMER’s second in the Chesham Stakes is the best form on offer and he can outclass an interesting field. Salouen has shown some promise for his in-form stable and can make the frame and Sakhee’s Secret filly Harmonise looks the most interesting of the newcomers.
