A cracking renewal in which ECONOMICS, who has been so impressive in Group 2 company on his last 2 starts, can show he has what it takes to come out on top at the highest level. Last year's winner Auguste Rodin can bounce back from his below-par run in the King George and provide the chief threat ahead of Ghostwriter.
