Formscan - A tentative vote goes to IMAGINE, who looks to have been laid out for this contest all season, especially seeing as though he has never tackled this trip and is bred to relish it. The son of Montmarte was last seen keeping on well for second in a Listed contest at Navan and his form ties in closely with Spanish Harlem from when they met at Gowran Park. Fourth in a Grade 1 at the Dublin Racing Festival, Cool Survivor brings arguably the strongest recent form to the table, but stamina is his strong suit and he may well want it very testing, while stablemate Felix Desjy has plenty of experience in big-field scenarios and could be on the premises. The best of the British contingent looks to be the progressive Irish Hill, who continues to go from strength to strength, as well as the Grade 1-placed Might I. Others to note include Firm Footings, Iroko and Mark Of Gold.
