Verdict

Ayaar cut little ice in the German 2000 Guineas and would prefer faster going, as would Discernable. Love Magic is the least exposed after a decent comeback run at Doncaster and won under Ryan Moore at Kempton last year. But the latter sticks with Lancelot Du Lac today after the partnership recorded an easy win at York earlier this month. Heaven's Guest tries 7f for the first time on the back of a win at Hamilton, but YOU DA ONE scored over today's distance at Goodwood last time with Flashlight back in third and it's Andrew Balding's charge that gets the vote. Firmdecisions is another recent winner at Goodwood but takes a big step up in class today as do both Intrigo and Hipster.
