DESERT WISDOM was progressive last year and, if he can repeat the form he showed when second in the Godolphin Mile over C&D 9 months ago (not seen since), he should be hard to beat. Prince Eiji was an impressive winner of a listed contest with several of these rivals behind him last time, so he's feared along with Algiers.
