MERCHANT (2) might have something to find on official ratings however looks progressive and could prove equal to the task. Represents a yard in form while looked useful picking up strongly to claim a competitive handicap tackling this trip at Royal Ascot last time. Danger may come from WIMBLEDON HAWKEYE (6) who is trained by James Owen and did well to finish runner-up in a muddling G2 Princess Of Wales's Stakes at Newmarket (July). Respect. RAHIEBB (3) holds solid claims dropping back to 1m4f following a solid third-place finish in the G2 Queen's Vase at Royal Ascot. GALVESTON (1) cannot be ignored.
