UNEX GOYA is a likely looking type for the in-form George Baker yard who sent out the winner of this maiden two years ago. The colt has rather surprisingly changed hands since making a very promising debut at Yarmouth over six furlongs and can build on that for his new connections having gone through the ring for 17,000 guineas. Phase Shift has shown a comparable level of form and she must go well again whilst Georgey Girl is out of a juvenile winner at this trip and any market support for her would be encouraging. Luca Cumani has a line on the selection's form so support for Kambis should also be taken seriously with Indian Arrow, Crossword and Sir Randolf amongst others of interest.
