Formscan - FIRST LEGION won at Ascot two starts ago and followed that up with a nose second at the same venue most recently. A further 3lb rise should not stop another big performance from the three-year-old and Richard Hannon's colt merits plenty of respect. Oliver Show rarely runs poorly and should not be underestimated in a race of this nature, while similar comments apply to Asuka. Others to consider are Khaleejy, American Gulf and Down To The Kid.
