Ran respectably on soft ground once, raced on faster otherwise; Ballydoyle colt whose record is 6-9 and who has form figures of 112 over 1m, the wins in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf (by a neck) and French 2,000 Guineas (by a head); ran well, albeit no match for Field Of Gold, in the St James's Palace Stakes most recently; solid contender who should be involved but has work to do to reverse placings with the Gosden colt.

Ballydoyle colt whose record is 6-8; he is 2-2 over 1m, having won the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf (by a neck) on firm ground last November and the French 2,000 Guineas (by a head) on good ground last month; ties in closely with Field Of Gold on one piece of 2yo form; could well have even more to offer at this distance and is one of the main contenders, contributing to a gripping clash of Guineas winners; trainer has landed this prize nine times.
