FormscanBy Tom Weekes - ANTHEM ALEXANDER was a top class juvenile and it is encouraging to see her turn out here at an early stage of her three year old career, possibly suggesting she has trained on. This minimum trip will suit, she should be ok on the slightly easy surface and, on adjusted ratings, comes out 1lbs above Maarek. Returning Maarek himself is a Group 1 winner but was well held on his comeback run last year and has been slowly away quite a bit recently. He would also prefer softer ground. Ainippe, drawn wide in 10, has a bit to find on ratings but was a capable juvenile while Great Minds has been in excellent form but might prefer softer ground. Jamesie is a good yard stick but might be vulnerable to a high class performer while Musical Comedy was a winner over six furlongs last year but tries five furlongs for the first time on seasonal reappearance here. This is a big step up for Eisenhower.
