Ronaldinho will obviously be popular for the Hannon and Hughes team that enjoys such a splendid record here and the son of Jeremy seems sure to be involved after finishing second here last time behind the impressive Silver Ridge over this trip and ground. However, Roger Varian's Dansili colt, ASHAADD, looked a winner-in-waiting when only just failing to reel in the Windsor Castle sixth, Ask Dad, another Hannon inmate, at Salisbury last time and can go one better now. Hopefully, he'll handle the ground. Richard Hannon also runs Emell, but there are likelier looking newcomers in the shape of Hillstar, a son of Danehill Dancer for the Stoute team, and Michael Bell's Pastoral Pursuits colt, Hot Mustard.
