Favourites have a good record in this, especially when trained by Richard Hannon so ATTRACTED TO YOU looks to have plenty in his favour. Beaten two lengths on debut at Goodwood when unfancied at 14/1 and ridden by Jimmy Fortune, this potential improver can take top billing today. Stablemate Choral is not ignored, however bigger threats could be Layla Jamil and Saskia's Dream who chased White Moonstone home at Ascot in July. Symi is the first foal of a classy mare but she stayed well so this trip might be on the short side, a comment that is unlikely to apply to Darajaat, a half-sister to Shabiba who is out of a dam who scored on her debut as a two-year-old. The stable form is a worry though, as it tends to be for John Hills but his charge Diamond Run is not discounted being closely related to the dam of Norfolk Stakes winner Approve.
