Soto Sizzler was found wanting stepped up to this grade at Kempton in March. Victory Chime looks up against it at the weights but Foxes Tales was trapped wide when behind Harrovian and Regal Reality in the Wolferton Stakes at Ascot and it would be no surprise to see those placings reversed. ADDEYBB (NAP) is best when there is plenty of give in the ground but he’s a genuine Group 1 performer who has 9lb and upwards in hand over his rivals according to official ratings. Passion And Glory was a Group 3 winner at Goodwood last year but didn’t pull up any trees in Dubai at the start of the year.

Passion And Glory (IRE) 66-1 (9-1) Never better than mid-division, 5th of 13, 3 3/4l behind Stay Foolish (9-1) at Meydan 2m Grp 2 (1) fst in Mar.
