BOOTHILL has already landed a pair of hot Ascot handicaps this season and Harry Fry's gelding can progress further, with only a 3 lb rise for his latest success looking more than manageable. Elixir de Nutz arrives here in the form of his life and also can't be discounted, whilst Editeur du Gite, who won the corresponding contest last season, looks on a fair mark if able to return to anywhere near his best form.
