NADER KING got the better of all bar the front-runner at Salisbury last time and has the scope to go on improving, so he takes marginal preference over Maso Bastie, who has already shown a liking for testing ground. Recent Ascot scorer Intricacy also deserves plenty of respect in what should be a hotly-contested handicap.
