Hawk Mountain won by 3 1/4 lengths. In the Goffs Million Composing was 3rd with the contest going to Dorset who beat August George by 1 1/4 lengths while at Listowel Antrim Coast was 5th in a race won by El Champo who beat General Clermont by 1/2 a length.

4: My Mate Alfie: A three-time course and distance winner including this race 12 months ago who got back on track with two runner-up efforts here in the summer. A change of tactics didn't pay off in the sprint Cup at Haydock last time but he can win this again.

4.22: Friends Of The Curragh Irish Cesarewitch. 

7: Ascending: A horse having a good year who after winning at Cork and Royal Ascot was an excellent 2nd in the Ebor at York 36 days ago. He led from 2 out but was passed soon after, he kept on well without troubling the winner. He goes back up in trip here and can pick up a 5th career win.
