LEGENDS OF WAR wasn't seen at his best up in Group company last time but he's in excellent hands and he's likely to leave that effort behind dropped back in class. Richard Hannon won this race last year for these connections and Motaffawit ought to run well after an eye-catching success at Leicester on debut but Shorter Skirt is preferred for the runner-up spot having shaped well at Kempton on debut.
