This race brings two improvers into the equation and it could be between them both. Preference is for top-weight LE LIGERIEN, who fulfilled some promising efforts when romping to victory at Newbury earlier this week. The nature of the victory suggests the hike in the weights should be no issue and the fact he's turned out so quickly suggests he is still in flying form. Flamboyant Joyaux got off the mark at Wetherby last time out and has been given some leniency off a light weight by the handicapper, while Sastruga and Serious Ego both ran taking races (for different reasons) last time and it would be no shock if they were to improve.
