ARQOOB wasn't beaten far into fifth on his seasonal debut at Newmarket last month and with the subsequent victory of the fourth giving that form some substance, Lucy Wadham's charge could launch a strong challenge. Secret Force finished a solid fourth back on the level at Hamilton last time, while Dunkeld Dreamer may improve for this extra test of stamina. The latter pair are preferred to Chillingham, who was awarded last year's renewal by the stewards.

Unbeaten in novice company, EXTREMELY ZAIN could prove better than his opening mark. William Haggas' charge beat a subsequent winner when successful at Newbury on his seasonal bow and an entry in next month's Sussex Stakes strongly suggests he's held in high regard. Aalto was set a stiff task in the Victoria Cup on his reappearance but could fare better here under Ryan Moore, while Mirabeau and Recency Bias are others worthy of a second look.

AL QAREEM made light of a 5lb penalty when successful in the corresponding race last year and bids to repeat the dose. Karl Burke's five-time Group winner had the measure of Mount Atlas (second) in Listed company at Musselburgh in April and looks the one to beat once again. Tabletalk also fell victim to the selection when third here last July, although he's weighted to finish closer this time, while Epic Poet will likely run his usual solid race.

Thunder Call was visually impressive in a maiden at Kempton but the form has taken a few knocks since and he faces a stiff introduction to handicapping. With more experience to draw upon, POSTMODERN could be the way to go. Placed in two highly-competitive events in Dubai earlier in the year, the son of Too Darn Hot is wily enough to cope with the task in hand. Man Of Vision, Fortification and the class-dropping Five Ways have each-way credentials.

INNER CITY BLUES is hard to ignore. Three pitches at the sales saw his price rise from 180,000 euros as a yearling through to Godolphin snapping up the son of Blue Point for 900,000 euros at the Arqana May Breeze-Up. This fellow could be a bright prospect for his high-profile connections. Stardom Glory and Sue's Last Chance are the pick of those with experience, while Ten Clarets is another interesting newcomer.

Empire Of Light is unbeaten in his last three appearances, most recently scoring by a head in a class 3 contest at Thirsk, and he has to be considered. Pearl Eye made his third outing for Jim Goldie a winning one at Hamilton recently and is another to note, but it may pay to side with POINT OF CONTACT. Andrew Balding's gelding wasn't disgraced in sixth in a much hotter event over a mile here last month and the booking of Ryan Moore suggests a big run can be expected.

Rousing Encore produced a better effort when a fair fourth in a warmer contest at Carlisle a few weeks ago and has to be of interest off a 1lb lower mark. Archduke Ferdinand faded into third at this level at Redcar last time and should remain competitive, but LORD ROXBY gets the nod. Nigel Tinkler's gelding accounted for two subsequent winners in third and fifth that day and only has a 6lb higher mark to contend with.
