In the strangest of racing years, having the Dante after the Derby seems one of the strangest events of all, but here we are. Highest Ground has the potential to improve past these but improve he must, as he has a bit to find with a few of these on form and won't represent any great value. Cormorant should ensure there's a good pace on and we have seen to devastating effect in the last few days what happens when you allow a Ballydoyle runner too much rope on the front. Juan Elcano has some top-class form to his name but this trip is still a concern, so maybe THUNDEROUS is the answer. He looked sure to improve on his Newmarket run and a good pace is sure to suit.
