Cerro Blanco made a winning start in a 7f maiden at the Craven meeting, looking a really promising sort, and he could easily be up to maintaining his unbeaten record on this sharp rise in grade, but the standard set by STELLAR SUNRISE is a decent one and it's the Balding runner who earns the vote. He's 2-2 over 7f on a sound surface, scoring in good style off a mark of 95 at Newbury on his return, and his Group 3 flop last October was likely down to the testing ground more than him not being good enough. Fred Darling fourth Ellusive Butterfly is third choice as she's taking a drop in grade, but don't rule out a good run from Saber Strike, who won his only start at two in good style and represents a top stable. |

Well on top late, promising debut when 1 1/4l winner in a maiden here on debut; top course trainer; effective 7f on good; looks a smart prospect and could easily be good enough on this sharp rise in grade. |

Off a break and up in trip, didn't definitely stay when fourth beaten 5 1/4l in Burradon Stakes (Listed) at Newcastle latest; effective 6-8f, acts on any; drop in trip should suit. |

No excuses, bit below best back in Britain/up in trip 6 1/4l third in a 3yo race here most recent run; top course trainer; suited by 6f, seems to stay 7f, acts on good to soft and good to firm; looks the stable number two. |

Travelled, improved back on better ground on seasonal debut when winning a handicap at Newbury by 2 1/2l last time; top jockey back on board; suited by 7f, acts best on a sound surface; progressive, well worth his place at this level. |

Saw it out well having been made plenty of use of when fourth beaten 2 1/4l in Dubai Duty Free Stakes (Group 3) (aka Fred Darling) at Newbury latest; effective 7/8f, acts on soft, good and AW; likeable and respected back down in grade. |
