Harrovian carries top-weight, but he's earned that burden, and at least demonstrated his current well-being when coming out a clear second best to Babbo's Boy at Haydock. A reproduction of that type of form should see him positively involved. Ironclad saw his winning run come to an abrupt end when upped-in-trip at Kempton (1m4f), while the 70,000gns purchase Elector makes his first start for David O'Meara. However, the most interesting runner is the lightly-raced colt AWAY HE GOES. Ismail Mohammed's charge didn't appear to fully stay the 1m4f trip on seasonal reappearance at Newbury, but it's perfectly feasible that he could sparkle over this shorter 1m2½f trip.
