Verdict

BRUSSELS showed big improvement in a first-time tongue strap when runner-up in the Middle Park Stakes here 2 weeks ago and this is an excellent opportunity for him to finally add to his maiden debut success. Revival Power blitzed some useful rivals when continuing her steep rise through the ranks in the Flying Childers at Doncaster and is the obvious threat despite carrying a 5 lb penalty. Beckford's Folly had excuses in the Sirenia Stakes at Kempton and looks best of the others.

Brussels silk

Debut winner at the Curragh. Has proved expensive to follow at a higher level since, though ran a cracker fitted with a tongue strap when runner-up in Middle Park here 2 weeks ago, shaping as if he'll prove effective over 5f. Sets a clear standard back down in class.

Revival Power (Ire) silk

Overdid things in the Queen Mary on the back of her Thirsk debut success but most progressive now, making all in York listed race and the Flying Childers at Doncaster last 2 starts. Penalised here but has more to come and could prove hard to catch.

Beckford's Folly (Ire) silk

Winner of pair of 6f novices on the July Course this summer. Failed to meet expectations in Sirenia Stakes at Kempton since, though was sweating a bit beforehand and also fractious in the stalls (raced freely). Remains with potential.
