Doncaster

Gewan is hard to knock as the only Group-race winner in the field and it was no-nonsense stuff when he landed the Acomb at York, having looked the most likely winner throughout. This will take some winning, though, as Cape Orator has made sharp progress in each of his three runs, Puerto Rico has placed form in Group 2s and should improve for this longer trip, while Cape Ashizuri is an unknown quantity. However, not many Sandown maidens are won by the 8l margin that OXAGON recorded in late July and this Frankel colt is a good-looker with all the scope in the world.[Alistair Jones]
