A race which already throws some smart juvenile form against some newcomers, First Prophet arguably sets the form standard in this and had viable excuses when flopping at Royal Ascot. If he brings his 'A' game, he should prove tough to beat. The likes of the regally-bred Masqool and Auriferious are interesting newcomers for yards who are currently in an extended purple patch, but it may be worth taking a chance with FRANCESCO GAURDI. The expensive purchase has a blue-blood pedigree being so closely related to wonder filly Treve and should be cherry ripe for a trainer who is currently operating at a 38% strike rate.
