Both Quiet Moment and Prancelaya, second and third here over the minimum trip at the start of the month, harbour room for progress. However, that run came on soft ground whereas that pair now face contrasting conditions of an additional furlong on good to firm. Sir Viktor has also only faced ground with cut to date but is steadily getting the hang of things and now takes a significant drop in trip. Attempting to quantify respective levels of improvement about all three is difficult tackling a new surface and GREY BRITAIN rates a more logical choice. Race conditions determine he concedes weight to all rivals but his Lingfield debut on good ground was full of promise and he surely must improve with the benefit of that experience.
