Formscan  - BELLUM JUSTUM benefitted from his seasonal reappearance to go on and win the Jockey Club Stakes (over C&D) at last year's Guineas meeting. In need of the run when fifth in the John Porter at Newbury a fortnight ago, he can emulate the feat with his sights lowered on his first ever try in a handicap. Nightime Dancer also drops in class and his younger legs can carry him into serious contention on these terms. The low-mileage Gamrai is likely to be popular after winning readily over 1m3f at Kempton. However, he's back on turf off 9lb higher and has another furlong to tackle.
