Proved his stamina already as 2yo, on good to soft; very much the type to build on that
2 (7)	Lion Of War b J:Oisin Murphy T:Charlie Johnston	J:Oisin Murphy T:Charlie Johnston	135	—	1553-3	87	98	80	29d	—	—	-3	18.9	11/4 27%
3rd in handicaps over 7f/1m; needs improvement but it's easy to think that 1m2f will help
3 (2)	Royal Rhyme b J:Clifford Lee T:K R Burke	J:Clifford Lee T:K R Burke	133	t	1-43	85	95	67	8d	—	—	+3	21	10/3 23%
Creditable third of nine in handicap at Haydock (1m) and this extra 2f will probably suit
4 (1)	Cool Party b J:James Doyle T:Charlie Johnston	J:James Doyle T:Charlie Johnston	132	—	211-	84	90	-	199d	—	—	+19	31.6	6/1 14%
Late foal; useful pedigree for 1m2f+; won twice as 2yo but can still come into his own
NR (4)	Mindset ch J:Ryan Moore T:Michael Bell	J:Ryan Moore T:Michael Bell	128	—	713-	80	96	71	200d	—	—	+11	19.9	17/2 11%
Good chance he can stay 1m2f and he too is open to improvement on handicap debut
6 (6)	My Lion b J:Cieren Fallon T:Andrew Balding	J:Cieren Fallon T:Andrew Balding	130	h	41-2	82	89	48	36d	—	—	+7	15.2	9 11%
Pipped over 1m2f on return; makes handicap debut and should still be capable of better
1 (3)	High Honour b J:William Buick T:Charlie Appleby	J:William Buick T:Charlie Appleby	135	tp	513-8	87	91	58	18d	—	—	+4	11.4	11/1 8%
Below form in recent C&D handicap (good to soft; made most); now also has his tongue tied
