ALNADIR wasn’t beaten far when only fourth over 1m2f at Kempton and may prove good enough dropping back down in trip given the runner-up has subsequently won. The Pink'n is another down in distance after a modest debut at Goodwood while Amorously never figured at Newmarket last time having finished runner-up at Haydock before that. Al Thoorayah was still well beaten when third on his introduction and Frankadore returned a disappointing favourite at Newbury recently. Eagles By Day is the first foal of a Group 3 winner and a newcomer to keep an eye on.
