Tchaikovsky is almost certain to improve on his debut at Yarmouth but Trafalgar Square disappointed on his second start at Newbury having shown promise on his first run at that track. American Bay looks the form pick having come up against smart performers at Salisbury and Ascot the last twice, though Flag Carrier was second here last month while Kings Valley has run a couple of solid races on soft going at Sandown. Godolphin are finishing the season with a flourish and ROYAL POWER, by Frankel out of a Group 3 winner, is bred to hold his own in decent company.
