Verdict
Florentine Flutter showed some promise as a juvenile and made a winning return over 7f at Haydock in April. John Gosden's charge promises to be more effective over the extra furlong here and should progress further while Newcastle winner Ajeel did not enjoy the clearest of runs when attempting a follow-up at Pontefract last time and is worth another chance. Chorist was far from disgraced when touched off at Hamilton having looked the winner and is another to consider along with Trimontium who hails from a yard in form and has respectable juvenile form.
