Several come into this race having already shown some promise. They include Louis Hull and Mizbah, both runner-up at Newcastle on their second start. Sandbetweenourtoes was a close fourth to Democretes on his debut at Newmarket and should confirm that form with seventh Sovereign Debt but a few newcomers in this may also turn out to be useful. Richard Fahey's Chapter Seven is a half-brother to very speedy juveniles Romantic Myth and Romantic Liasion, while Festival Spirit is a half-brother to the smart Titus Liviius and Briseida. The Acclamation colt TALWAR cost 140,000gns as a yearling, however, and has a clutch of top-class entries - he can make a winning debut.
