MAXIMAL is bred in the purple and ran to a very high figure for a beaten debutant at Newbury last month. A repeat of that will most likely suffice and he's open to improvement on top of that. One Ruler also showed plenty of ability on his first run, while Mithras and Aquaman could be the pick of a interesting bunch of newcomers.
