RUMSTAR (4) went for a break on the back of a win then also scored when fresh in the G3 Palace House Stakes at Newmarket (Rowley). Tougher assignment this time in higher grade but going well and can go on with it. MGHEERA (8) was too good when resuming in an easier race over 1000m in the G3 Prix Saint-Georges at Longchamp last start, scoring by 1.5 lengths. Will be better for that latest run and must be respected. AMERICAN AFFAIR (2) scored last start at York to make it two wins from two starts this campaign. Tackles a much tougher assignment but still has winning claims on his best figures. WASHINGTON HEIGHTS (6) resumed last time out and finished fourth over 1000m at Newmarket (Rowley), beaten 4 lengths. Deserves serious consideration.
