FormscanBy Alan Magee - There is very little to choose between Go Bears Go and DUBAWI LEGEND on running behind Minzaal in a Group 3 over this trip at Newbury last month. The Hugo Palmer-trained colt, runner-up to Native Trail in the Dewhurst last term, was dropping down to the distance for the first time and may have a little more scope to progress as a sprinter. Teresa Mendoza had Power Under Me a length back in third when scoring over course and distance on the Irish Derby card but Ger Lyons’ gelding is preferred at the revised terms. Gustavus Weston has won this twice in the past three years but all three of his course and distance wins have come with plenty of cut in the ground. Castle Star may progress from a belated seasonal debut here last month.
