ANCIENT TRUTH (1) showed potential winning under a penalty over course and distance and may enhance the good record of trainer Charlie Appleby. COLUMNIST (3) sets the standard on the back of his excellent third-placed finish in the 6f G2 Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot. Could appreciate stretching out to 7f. Similar comments apply to THE PARTHENON (8) who was fifth in the G3 Marble Hill Stakes at the Curragh on debut before getting off the mark at Gowran Park. PENTLE BAY (6) cannot be discounted after following home an emphatic winner in the Listed Chesham Stakes.
