One Man Band has a fantastic record on the Dirt here having won eight times including the Grade 2 Godolphin Mile back in 2016. He's in a different class to these but returns after a 999 day absence so is overlooked until we see if he retains ability. His stable companion STUNNED also has a good record around here and reappeared with a very impressive handicap victory. He was only third in this behind Heavy Metal a year ago but arrives in much better form this time. Secret Ambition was in double-winning form around this time last year and won again in February though he's held by the selection on a line through Heavy Metal. Rodaini is really finding his feet here and though only scrambling home a fortnight ago there looks to be more to come. Zainhom, a juvenile maiden winner at York for Sir Michael Stoute, has only run on this surface once and was well beaten.
