ALDAARY hasn't been at his very smart best so far this term but a tactical affair in testing ground in the Sussex Stakes last time wasn't ideal and, down in grade, he's worth a chance to show he retains all of his ability. Thoroughbred Stakes winner Epictetus is an obvious danger and there's a case to be made for Charyn.
