Some well bred types representing powerful yards in opposition so the market will provide further clues but Urowells is the suggestion ahead of Alaared with Singleton and Anchorsholme newcomers to note. Urowells is bred in the purple being from the same family as Hector Protector and Bosra Sham and shaped with plenty of promise in a minor event at Ascot on his sole juvenile start. Ed Dunlop's charge ran encouragingly on ground softer than ideal when fourth on his Haydock comeback behind Tuning Fork earlier this month and the form was given a timely boost when the winner finished runner-up in the Dante on Wednesday. With the outing under his belt and racing on better ground, Urowells looks the one to be on with Kieren Fallon on board. Singleton is a daughter of Singspiel and related to several useful winners so has to be respected with Henry Cecil having made a bright start to the campaign while John Dunlop's Anchorsholme is bred to appreciate middle distances and should be closely monitored. The latter's stable mate Alaared made a pleasing introduction in a hot maiden over a mile here last month and should give a good account over this more suitable trip.
