Promise in first two starts and off the mark at Redcar last time out, scoring with plenty in hand. Needs a step forward to win this but yard's juveniles capable of plenty of improvement between runs and given time to recover from his latest effort.

Looked very impressive over C&D last time despite over-racing in the early stages and yard enjoying a fine time of things with their juveniles this year. Expected to take another step forward here and should be thereabouts if he settles better.

Won a Listed race in France this year but beaten out of sight in a valuable York contest last time out. Needs to bounce back from that effort and looks vulnerable to less exposed sorts.

Won on debut at Goodwood and not beaten far by September in a Listed race at Ascot in June. Form of that contest franked since and holds a Group 1 entry so should run well with more improvement likely.

Mizzen Mast colt, half-brother to US dirt winner Here Sir and dam a useful sort over this kind of trip and a half-sister to Grade 2 winner Filimbi. Very impressive on debut, quickening up well but needs a big step forward to take a hand here.

Won on debut and ran well in a pair of Group races, latterly the Phoenix Stakes at the Curragh. Slowly away both those starts and that trait needs eradicating if he wants to get his head in front but has just about the best form on offer here.

11/2
Sprung a 33/1 shock on debut at Newmarket, getting the better of a pair of wells-fancied Godolphin runners and fourth from the race has come out and won a decent contest since. Likely to need a big step forward to figure upped in class though.

Forecasts

Masar (11/8), Purser (9/2), Vintager (11/2), Romanised (7/1), Connect (8/1), Arbalet (14/1), De Bruyne Horse (20/1)

Verdict

Romanised ran with credit in a Group 1 at the Curragh last time but his habit of slow starting is slightly off-putting and a chance is taken with CONNECT. Clive Cox has been in fine form with his juveniles this campaign and there was plenty to like about the way he won over course and distance last time. Masar and Purser are obvious dangers with the former narrowly preferred after an impressive run at Royal Ascot last time out.
