If these all fulfill their potential this could turn out to be a fairly decent maiden, where WOULD BE KING looks the likeliest winner. He showed great progression from his debut run to finish second in Listed company last time out, when he was only beaten by Brother Bear, who would go on to run an excellent race in the Group 2 Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot. Gustav Klimt is more interesting due to breeding and connections than anything he did on his tame first run, but still shouldn't be ignored, especially as Ryan Moore's choice of ride, while Burgandy Boy could also come on from his debut performance.
