Intriguing to see three-year-olds tackling their elders in this Listed contest. Archer's Dream has looked impressive on both starts but now takes the elevator from Class 5 to Listed grade and is yet to tackle anything other than good ground. Emaraaty Ana is tempting as he landed the Gimcrack Stakes last term and now reverts to sprinting after failing to stay in the 2000 Guineas and the Irish equivalent. However, all outings have been on better ground and he's best watched. Arbalet faces a tough task, Richenza steps up from handicap company and George Bowen is exposed but genuine and could go well but SNAZZY JAZZY is taken to give the weight away. He's effective over trip and ground and is already proven at black type level.
