Formscan - Alaskan Gold has to be of interest on his first start for Alan King, having placed in Listed company at Doncaster as a juvenile. The son of Kodiac, who was last seen finishing fourth to Commonwealth Cup hero Inisherin at Haydock, should appreciate the drop in grade, but may find NEVER SO BRAVE too strong for him. Sixth in the Jersey at Royal Ascot, things didn't go to plan subsequently at Chester and he is well worth another chance on this occasion. Fair Point completes the shortlist.
