It isn't too often that Frankie Dettori ventures to Chepstow but he rode FUWAIRT for his retainers when the latter won here last month. The Hannon colt's eighth in the Windsor Castle Stakes appears the best form on offer and a repeat should suffice. London Life was predictably outclassed in the Queen Mary Stakes but were the rain to arrive to any degree, she could put her previous experience of testing conditions to use. Chris Wall's string are in fine form at present and while Accipiter may have surprised plenty with victory at 33/1 on debut at Kempton, she wasn't too far away when tried in Listed company at Newmarket on her next outing. Sunny York was easy to back on debut at Lingfield but she obliged in convincing fashion and could still be open to improvement.
