Charles Hills sent out last year's winner and SIR ROGER MOORE has been competing in better company than this. Not beaten that far when only eighth in a Class 2 maiden at Goodwood last time, he can come out best. Dark Forest looks a threat with improvement likely after an opening sixth at Newmarket and Gandvik showed progress when fifth at Sandown last time albeit over a longer trip. Dancing Star and Zlatan may also finish closer while Smiley Bagel, a half-brother to five winners, makes most appeal of the newcomers ahead of Macho Mac and Aloysius.
