Race preview
Barristan The Bold created a taking impression when scoring over seven furlongs here last time, but faces a tough task this time around conceding 7lb to some useful looking prospects up in trip at a mile. Convivial Stakes third Voltaic was doing his best work late that day at York and should have more to come stepping up in distance. However, a chance is taken on the Kingman newcomer DALAALAAT who represents the winning jockey and owner of this race last season and he appears the pick of the newcomers narrowly ahead of Godolphin's brother of Group Three winner City Style, Al Mikdam.
