Warp Factor was third over a shorter trip at Ayr on Tuesday and can figure off the same mark but ARCHIPPOS is preferred. The latter scored at Doncaster on his reappearance and most of a 6lb rise is negated by David Egan’s allowance. Croquembouche ran well for second at Windsor recently and is another to consider while Modernism is preferred to Gabrial's Star over today’s trip. Subcontinent notched up a hat-trick for Godolphin in 2015 and has had a recent outing over hurdles under his belt for new connections.
