Verdict
A wide-open contest but HUTTON should be in the firing-line stepping up in trip after a couple of placed efforts over 7f. King of Dreams was also placed in both starts on Turf back in August and Short Distance is preferred to the other Godolphin runner, Disobedience, on their respective debut efforts. Dostoyevsky is out of a prolific dam and a half-brother to a Group 1 winner while fellow newcomer Exoteric is also related to a couple of winners.
