NonRunner
You're Hired is the senior runner in this but has won at Bath this season and wasn’t beaten far at Ascot a week ago when a pound higher. Dubai Legacy is eased in grade and on a decent mark at present but hasn’t raced since May. KETTLE HILL (NAP) has returned from a break in fine form with a couple of narrow defeats off similar marks. He is due to go up 5lb next week and can get the better of dual course and distance winner Farasi Lane, who may have preferred more ease in the ground. Arqoob is still improving and looks a danger while Carolus Magnus remains unexposed.
