BENBAUN has an incredible record in this having won it in 2005 when it carried Listed status and again as a Group 3 last year. He's also been runner-up on two other occasions and though disappointing in the Temple Stakes at Haydock last time he looked as good as ever behind Marchand D'Or at Longchamp previously and can gain victory number three in the race. Elnawin has bounced back to form this year and was only headed in the dying strides by Sir Gerry over 6f at Salisbury last time. Rain Delayed always does best at this trip and was attempting to concede 6lbs to Miss Gorica in a Listed race at Naas last time when the favourite Sole Power was a disappointing fifth. He can take his revenge on the winner at the revised weights and looks a threat to all. Arctic looked a potential champion sprinter when completing a hat-trick on his first three starts including twice here though he failed on much faster going on his final start at Newmarket and could do with some rain.
