Bernie's Boy hasn't done a lot wrong so far in better races than this and still has an entry in next month's Champagne Stakes. But Taurean Star and TIDAL WAVE showed a similar level of form on debut and have more scope. The former is entered in both the Royal Lodge and Dewhurst so is obviously held in some regard but the latter is just preferred given he may have seen too much daylight when third here last week. Easy Code, Monsieur Glory and Remaan are all newcomers to note but Four On Eight and Compton Sky may need more time.
