AL AASY (1) won this in 2021. Looked as good as ever at the age of eight winning the 1m2f G2 Gordon Richards Stakes at Sandown on reappearance. Stepping back up to 1m4f will not prove an issue and he can take his record to five wins from eight starts at this course. The Harry Charlton-trained KING'S GAMBIT (5) finished a decent fourth behind a seven-time G1 winner attempting a G3 in Qatar 91 days ago. May have more to offer in first-time blinkers. Charlie Appleby trains the progressive EL CORDOBES (3) who looked good among handicap company tackling this trip at Newmarket (Rowley) a fortnight ago. Cannot be ignored up in standard. SUNWAY (7) may come on for his returning third in the G3 Dubai Duty Free Finest Surprise Stakes over course and distance. Consider.
