Bouyrin looked certain to be suited by an extra furlong when staying on strongly behind Lead Role over 6f here last time and should find a race soon though there are a few choicely-bred newcomers to contend with. Botteen is a brother to an all-weather winner and half-brother to six other winners but it's the 130,000gns purchase HENRY THE AVIATOR who catches the eye as he's closely related to five winners including a Grade performer in the USA. He's given the nod as King Wood will probably do better over further in time as may Go Far, who was staying on at the finish over this course and distance last time.
