Formscan  - Ice Max returns to Pattern level with obvious claims, having defied top-weight in a competitive York handicap, while Ebt's Guard, who was beaten a neck in the Balmoral on Champions Day recently, deserves to take his chance up in class. However, although not at his best since winning the Joel Stakes last September, it might be worth giving another chance to PRAGUE. Outclassed in the Champion Stakes latest, the son of Galileo has much less on his plate today and will not have many better opportunities in which to prove himself.
