A multiple winner on Polytrack, COME ON BLUE CHIP made the most of a lower mark back on this surface when scoring over track and trip three weeks ago. He can confirm running with the third, Sheila's Buddy, and go in again. Tinshu and Robin Hood have similar profiles to the selection in that they can also race of a lower mark on Turf but neither figured in the same race at Ascot last time. Lucky Henry is not badly weighted but is hard to win with while Prince Of Burma has something to prove over today's longer trip.
