The extra furlong is no problem for David O'Meara's grey, who looks a class above these. Mustashry is the pick of the Stoute duo following a successful Sandown comeback, and Threading is a player if putting her best foot forward. Top Tip: LORD GLITTERS (2) Watch out for: MUSTASHRY (4)

ATR VERDICT: Berkshire Blue just held off Blue Laureate at the Shergar Cup and there should be little to choose between them again, while there would be no more deserving winner than Corgi following his seconds at Royal Ascot and Glorious Goodwood. Mekong stayed on well to strike over this trip at Chelmsford, and hat-trick seeker Supernova shouldn't fail through stamina either, but HEART OF GRACE lurks dangerously at the foot of the weights and is open to any amount of improvement.

He drops in both class and trip, and it should provide him with an ideal confidence boost before he returns to the top table. Suedois, third in this 12 months ago, finished ahead of Donjuan Triumphant and So Beloved when second in the Lennox Stakes and he looks the chief threat, although Tabarrak isn't out of it.

Teodoro is 9lb well-in after his Haydock romp two weeks ago, while Blakeney Point wears first-time blinkers and has Jamie Spencer on board. Last year's winner NAKEETA warmed up for this with a solid fifth at Newbury last time and looks perfectly drawn in stall 15, so he receives the vote.

He is a consistent colt and it would be no surprise to see him take this contest. Vintage Brut and Well Done Fox have to be respected despite having to carry 3lb penalties, while Chapelli and Glory Fighter also make the shortlist. Top Tip: SABRE (6) Watch out for: VINTAGE BRUT (1)

A 6lb rise doesn't look too harsh and he can again account for Pivoine, who looked unlucky in sixth when blocked at a crucial stage in that same race, and Communique, who should appreciate the return to handicap company.

C&D winner Marnie James was narrowly behind Lord Riddiford at Goodwood latest and there could be little between the pair on these revised terms. Top Tip: ROUNDHAY PARK (6) Watch out for: SAVALAS (1)
