Verdict
It was 10 years ago when Darasim last won this for a UK raider but AIKEN can put that right. He was fancied to make a winning reappearance in the Geoffrey Freer at Newbury last month but that proved beyond him though last year's second to Rite Of Passage over 2m at Ascot gives him every chance here. John Gosden's charge can reverse latest running with Genzy and could also be too good for Domeside, who beat Les Beaufs over track and trip earlier in the year. Dance Moves and Gaterie will no doubt lay down another strong challenge for the Fabre team but it's doubtful the veteran Kasbah Bliss can relive former glories having won this twice in the last decade.
