Formscan - Persica won this last year and is bound to make a bold bid again, but it's hard to get away from DAMYSUS. The Gosdens' colt took a step forward when landing the Darley Stakes over track and trip in October and is definitely going in the right direction. The son of Frankel could prove too good for these on his return to action before a possible tilt at the Lockinge. Boiling Point and Skukuza are both bang there on official ratings and neither can be ruled out.
