Plenty with claims in this. Rouge Nuage is 3lb higher than when scoring here in August and Arlecchino's Leap has been raised the same amount after winning over track and trip three weeks ago with Logans Lad behind. Ambitious Boy has proved best over 6f so far but UNTIL MIDNIGHT drops in class after a couple of good efforts over today's trip at Newmarket and Ascot last time and he gets the nod. Foreign Diplomat has a shout off his current mark, as does Thataboy, while Alnashama could also go well dropping down in trip.
