Much like the first division, this looks like a red hot a high class novice event and KING OF COMEDY makes most appeal for John Gosden's yard. The master trainer is more than capable of readying debutantes and the son of Kingman makes plenty of appeal on paper. Phoenix Of Spain cost plenty as a yearling and the yard have been doing well with their juveniles this year while Fox Premier boasts a similar profile and shouldn't be ruled out.
