Formscan - The unbeaten WATER TO WINE arrives with a big reputation having easily beaten subsequent Derby fifth Alderman at Newbury on debut. The son of Kingman was forced to miss the Chester Vase, but got back on track with a facile victory at Kempton and the King George and Arc entrant could prove a potent force at this level and above. Saying that, the progressive Causeway will be no pushover, having completed a four-timer with last month's Group 3 victory at the Curragh. He could prove the main danger ahead of Listed winner Ancient Egypt, who found the soft going against him in the Derby.

Quotes on Causeway (IRE)
We knew he’d stay very well. I left the cheekpieces off him today, when he was going up to a mile-and-a-quarter, and he is very lazy. He (Moore) was very happy with him. We always thought as he went up (in trip) he would get better. He’s a lovely, honest-to-God, horse. Ryan gave him a lovely straightforward, uncomplicated, ride.
