DOCKLANDS (5) kept coming but just failed to pick up the winner when first-up as favourite last start over 1600m in the LR Paradise Stakes at Ascot. Will take a lot from that hitout. Going up a level this time but he cannot be underestimated. PERSICA (3) is a talented entire who tackled tougher grade last time, finishing 12 lengths behind Lead Artist over 1600m in the G1 Lockinge Stakes at Newbury. Has been in solid form this campaign with a win and a placing from three starts. Bold showing expected. GEOGRAPHY (2) has enjoyed a let-up of eight weeks since he won when resuming over 1600m in the G3 Frühjahrs-Meile at Dusseldorf, scoring by a nose. Will be better for that latest run and is expected to feature in the finish. ROYAL DUBAI (7) resumed last time out and finished fourth over 1600m at Ascot, beaten 5.5 lengths. Profiles to run well.
