Formscan By Tom Weekes - Last year's English St Leger winner CONTINUOUS is unpenalised and should take beating, albeit having been beaten at Royal Ascot in June. Ground-versatile and high-class, he finished fifth in the Prix de l'Arc last October and while he failed to quicken finishing an underwhelming fifth in the recent Hardwicke Stakes, that was at least his seasonal reappearance run and he meets inferior rivals today. Caught U Looking is herself smart and has finished fifth in two Oaks but should struggle to beat the selection, dropping in distance. Trustyourinstinct was possibly flattered to finish so close to Jan Brueghel in June (as that horse is possibly better over longer distances) but is capable and might place.
