11/1

Confirmed debut promise when winning11-runner maiden (7/2) at this C&D (good) 22 days ago by neck from Puerto Rico, getting first run. Yard in good form and shouldn't be much between that pair again.

Form: 31

4/1

Winning debut over 5f here March. Respectable 3¾ lengths fifth of 20 to Gstaad in Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot (6f, good to firm, 14/1) 32 days ago and he's established as useful.

Puerto Rico²²

13/2

Neck second of 11 to Learntodiscover in maiden (4/6) at this C&D (good) 22 days ago, conceding first run. Likely has more to offer but stablemate True Love will take some stopping.

Form: 42

True Love³¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: R L Moore| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 104

1/2

Promising individual. Won 23-runner Queen Mary Stakes at Royal Ascot (5f, firm, 9/4) 31 days ago by 1¼ lengths from Flowerhead, overcoming positional bias. Sets a high standard with return to 6f sure to suit. Hard to beat.

Form: 221

Forecasts

True Love (1/2), Power Blue (4/1), Puerto Rico (13/2), Learntodiscover (11/1)

In receipt of weight all round, it's hard to get away from Queen Mary winner TRUE LOVE, who will surely improve again returned to 6f. Power Blue ran with credit in a different Royal Ascot race and can offer most resistance.
