Finished just behind Master Bomber 49 days ago when eighth at Kenilworth over 6f; prospects as seemingly there is more to come from this nicely bred son of American Pharoah.

Verdict

DUBBELOSIX is a firm choice. He looks one of the most open to improvement. Gold Dust is capable of better while this trip could be a bit far for Master Bomber, and Typically French has a useful draw.
