Irish colts Trinity College and Tiberius Thunder help to set a useful standard. There are some promising types among the remainder, most notably DEVIL'S ADVOCATE who is taken to give the Gosden yard an eighth success in this race. The Cursor (second choice) and Prince Of The Seas are interesting too.[Steve Boow]

Cost 350,000gns as a yearling; stayed on strongly for an emphatic success at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) in his second autumn start and that form has worked out nicely; looks a very useful prospect and his stable has a great record in this race; strong credentials.
Progressive but his chance may depend on what the weather does, having gained his two wins on soft going then performed well in a heavy-ground Horris Hill; dam's side suggests he'll stay the new trip.
Sea The Stars colt who justified favouritism in Sandown maiden (1m, good) when last seen and that form received a strong boost at Newmarket last week; looks an interesting middle-distance prospect.
Similar type to Prince Of The Seas, being a twice-raced son of Sea The Stars; has plenty to find on bare figures but may build on his Lingfield win (1m2f, AW) and show further progress.
The only maiden in this field but has raced just twice and showed plenty of promise, going down by only a neck, at Doncaster (1m2f, good to soft) latest; this Frankel colt should do better still and his trainer knows what it takes to land this prize, having won it three times.
Twice-raced Irish colt who justified favouritism in Dundalk maiden (1m, AW) then appeared to run very well in the Ballysax at Leopardstown (1m2f, good to yielding); latter effort gives him major claims.
Seems versatile as regards ground; useful colt who made all for 2l success at Naas (1m) on seasonal debut, taking record to 2-6; likely to stay this new trip; seems well down the pecking order at Ballydoyle, and his trainer's underwhelming record in this contest features just one win (in 2019); however, holds a leading chance on form.
