5/2
220,000gns Kodiac yearling, half-brother to Group 3-winning miler Epsom Icon. Not beaten far on debut at HQ over 6f recently and will be suited by the extra furlong. Likely to be a different proposition this time.

9/1
Holy Roman Emperor colt related to a number of fair winners and out of a Group 3 winner over 1m4-1m6f. Yard doing very well at present but may be better for this debut run unless market inidcates otherwise.

5/2
Debut for 95,000 euros Kingman colt whose dam won Group 3 over extended 1m1f. Yard in good form and has 13% strike rate at this venue with its juveniles.

Recovery Run

10/3
Nathaniel colt who cost 38,000 euros as a yearling. Unraced dam is half-sister to Group 3 winner Regal Reality (1m-1m2f) so has a decent pedigree. Market should give some clues as to what he's been showing at home ahead of this first outing.

25/1
Yourgonnabelucky gelding who is half-brother to two winners at 7f-1m2f. Green and slowly away over C&D on debut recently and didn't show enough to indicate he will take a hand here at the business end of the race.

Royal Tribute
Age: 2|  Weight: 9-5| J: David Probert| T: R Hannon
5/1
Stable companion of Genuflex. Kingman colt out of Graded stakes winner in the US and makes some appeal on paper. Yard can ready one first time out so every chance he may go well as long as there is no market negativity.

Forecasts

King Zain (5/2), Barber Of Seville (5/2), Recovery Run (10/3), Royal Tribute (5/1), Genuflex (9/1), Reset Button (25/1)

Verdict

Barber Of Seville didn't set the world alight on debut over 6f but this trip may suit him better and he will put his previous experienec to good use. That said, Richard Hannon runs two newcomers here and ROYAL TRIBUTE looks an interesting candidate. He has an appealing pedigree and may prove sharper than stable companion Genuflex. King Zain could be a danger to all hailing from a yard that always does well with its juveniles and he is feared. Recovery Run also makes his first appearance and with his yard still going well any support for him would be noteworthy.
