Raasel hit top form at this time last year and won this with Clarendon House behind. But he finished well behind EQUILATERAL when the latter finished runner-up in the Group 2 Temple Stakes over track and trip last month and Charlie Hills’ sprinter is partnered by Frankie once again. Regional won a decent handicap at York and Mondammej finished in front of Fine Wine and Korker when second at the same track a fortnight ago but Ryan Moore’s presence on Listed winner Prince Of Pillo takes the eye and the latter may prove a bigger threat.
