Art Power is best watched following a lengthy absence and Al Suhail hasn’t run since March. Rohaan and Brad The Brief are 6f specialists so may be treading water in the closing stages if Pogo assumes his usual front-running role as he did at Goodwood last month when a close third behind Sandrine and KINROSS with favourite Sacred keeping on for fifth. Frankie’s mount had to fight for room inside the final furlong so was possibly an unlucky loser and he can reverse that form with the winner here. Jumby did well to win the Hungerford Stakes at Newbury as he was slow leaving the stalls. He should be thereabouts again and Dr Zempf is certainly no slouch.
