FormscanBy Gary Carson - AL RIFFA was impressive when stepping up to this trip for the first time in the Curragh Cup here and the classy middle distance performer can strike again at the top level now. He pulled clear in fine style over course and distance in July and softer ground now wouldn’t be an issue. A real test of stamina would suit Illinois and he’s the obvious danger. The Galileo colt was runner-up in the St Leger at Doncaster last season and filled the same position in the Gold Cup this year. The progressive Amiloc is another that has to come into calculations. The unbeaten Postponed gelding makes his first start since winning a Group 2 contest at Royal Ascot.%0A%0A
