Sir Michael Stoute's Greek Well really takes the eye on pedigree being a brother to the yard's Islington and Greek Dance and is taken to make a winning debut with Senor Dali and Darenjan rated the main dangers. Senor Dali probably has the best form of those to have raced previously but he was well held in the Predominate last time and is becoming expensive to follow. Stablemate Acts of Grace should go on the ground and has a decent pedigree but may well need the run as has been the case with most of John Dunlop's horses this term. Accompanist was well beaten on his debut, while Altenburg does not look to be good enough and a bigger threat may come from another Stoute newcomer Darenjan, who is from a good family. Greek Well is bred to be useful though and he makes plenty of appeal on breeding on his debut.
