Cadeau D'or showed some ability over a mile at Sandown on last year’s debut when well behind the smart Miss Yoda and steps up in distance on his belated return to action. But SECOND SLIP has the more recent form having finished clear of the rest when runner-up to Crystal Pegasus, rated 87, over today’s trip at Bath. James Fanshawe’s charge can land this with normal progress. The remainder are harder to recommend with Jacinta De Vega and Irene's Dream perhaps the most likely improvers while Riqaaby has switched yards having ran in a couple of bumpers in Ireland so far.
