Grandioro was not right here on reappearance under Richard Hughes when tailed off having been expected to go well. The market may well reflect his chance but he's too dangerous to recommend after that disappointment. Nicholascopernicus swept away the cobwebs at Salisbury and looks on a competitive mark of 90 which should see him in the mix, whilst others of interest are the consistent High Office, recent winner Streets Of Newyork and course lover Itlaaq. However, there's also a trio of intriguing unexposed types lurking. Godolphin field both Wadi Al Hattawi and Great Fighter, both of whom must have more to offer but ENDLESS CREDIT is narrowly preferred as he looks just the sort for Luca Cumani to exploit as a four-year-old. The High Chaparral gelding hasn't been seen since last summer when rating a progressive sort and can start making up for lost time off 86, especially if the market signposts his wellbeing after an absence of over 300 days.
