DEJA wasn't seen to best effect in the Ebor when last seen but he took his form to another level prior to that, runner-up at Royal Ascot before a decisive winner of the Old Newton Cup at Haydock, and is well worth a shot at this grade. Al Aasy scored at this level as a 3-y-o and is the type to do better again this season, while the race-fit Outbox arrives in top form.
