A tricky contest this but Alan King's useful dual-purpose performer SCARLET DRAGON gets the vote. In Epatante he bumped into a likely Grade One performer latest but his win at Market Rasen the time before reads well in this context. Thoroughly likable mare Irish Roe may find 2m on this flat track un-ideal but she isn't taken lightly. Unexposed four-year-old Faro De Kerser is hard to gauge; market support for him would be very notable.
