CANTOR was having only his third start of the year when scoring over track and trip. He won with plenty to spare and a 5lb penalty may not be enough to prevent him following-up in this company. Buster Brown has slipped down the weights and showed signs of a revival when third here last week but the remainder are harder to fancy. Mudaawem has finished tailed off on the Turf either side of a second at this track while Dubai Celebration has an outside chance if forgiven a below par effort at Newcastle last time.
