Aristocracy was only beaten a short-head at Ludlow on his second start but GOLDEN DOYEN's run behind Karezak at Chepstow looks much the better form. The first two were well clear of the remainder and Philip Hobbs' charge should go one better here. All Yours only had one run on the Flat in France so could be anything but might just need this. Alzammaar was placed three times on the level earlier this year for Charlie Hills and is also interesting but Moojaned and Princess Ombu have some improving to do.
