Some potentially interesting three-year-olds clash with ROYAL PLEASURE possibly open to most improvement. A course and distance winner on debut, the Prescott charge just failed to concede 7lb to Elakazaam in his follow-up attempt and the son of Kingman can get back on the winning track. Fellow course and distance scorer, Stylish Performer, found life too demanding in an Ascot Class 2 this month but should be much more at home dropping two levels in grade. He'd previously looked progressive at this level. The remainder can all have a case made for their chance with Farasi Lane and Kodiac Brown Bear next best.
