Luca Cumani's debutant's usually come on for their initial experience but this won't take much winning and SYNCOPATE is the speculative selection. The 42,000gns colt is the first foal of an all-weather winner and is preferred to Pomarine, who failed to show any progress at Chepstow last time. Losing odds-on favourite Yeomanoftheguard is another with something to prove while King's Guest also disappointed after a promising debut. Arctic Stryker has lost his way and Green Mitas has shown his best over further.
