FormscanBy Mark Nunan - Twilight Payment looks the obvious place to start after two course and distance victories this summer, but he hasn’t made the placings in three previous renewals and may have to give best again. SEARCH FOR A SONG benefitted from a daring ride by Chris Hayes to beat Kew Gardens in this last year and, although missing a recent prep race wasn’t ideal, she showed she was on the way back when third to Magical over 1m2f here in July. She can make a bold bid for a repeat success. Fujaira Prince is lightly-raced for one of his age and has thrived this summer with handicap wins at Royal Ascot and the Ebor. This looks his optimum trip but more will be required of him in his first run in a Stakes race. Last year’s surprise Irish Derby winner Sovereign could get involved if settling better than he did when third to Twilight Payment here on his comeback run in June.
