Court House gave Gronkowski a bit of a fright at Kempton and is fancied to claim the runnerup spot ahead of the wellrelated and expensive Department Of War, who was impressive at Nottingham. Top Tip: OLD PERSIAN (3) Watch out for: COURT HOUSE (1)

Aurum made a victorious debut on the same day and is the unknown quantity in the race, although Mutaaqeb also has any amount of improvement in him and showed talent at two.

ATR VERDICT: Wahoo's rivals didn't see which way he went on his Doncaster reappearance, but he is unlikely to get as easy a time up in front here, with Midsummer Knight and Yafta also preferring to force the issue, and the latter had the disappointing Chagatai well behind him when an excellent second at the Guineas meeting. His stablemate Mayyasah is interesting on her return, as is Red Roman, but SHOWMETHEDOUGH gets a swift opportunity for redemption after finding 5f too sharp at Chester last week and he is worth another chance.

Beyond Reason is the first progeny of Australia to hit the track and fetched 370,000 euros as a yearling, but ANGEL'S HIDEAWAY was even more expensive and the daughter of Dark Angel is bred to be speedy. New Winds, Thebah and Keska are all worth a second glance in a very interesting contest. Top Tip: ANGEL'S HIDEAWAY (1) Watch out for: BEYOND REASON (2)

Considering that was his first appearance since he finished last in the King Charles II Stakes on this card 12 months ago, he is entitled to strip much sharper and has a racefitness edge over Horsted Keynes, who was consistent last year but isn't getting any younger. Mountain Rescue is better than he showed at Yarmouth, while two efforts at Doncaster have suggested that Colonel Frank is on a workable mark.

Phantasmic stepped forward from her sole juvenile effort to hit the crossbar at Wolverhampton, although the winner didn't do a massive amount for the form in the Lingfield Oaks Trial. Outlane and Snax are bred to improve with age, and the debutant Turaya should also be most effective given a test of stamina. Top Tip: HAMEEM (2) Watch out for: PHANTASMIC (4)

Paul Midgley's grand campaigner is preferred to Mr Pocket, who made a successful start to life with Robert Cowell at Brighton. Daschas is better than his Windsor finishing position suggests, and his stable companion Shamshon is also in with a shout. Top Tip: MOVE IN TIME (2) Watch out for: MR POCKET (7)
