Cape Breton
450,000gns son of Frankel; 2-1 favourite for novice at Ascot (7f, soft) four weeks ago, slowly away but threatening over 2f out before he faded to be a well-held last of four; could be all the better now that he has that run under his belt.

Wild Nature
Trainer has a good record in this race; second favourite when placed in two maidens at Sandown (1m, good) which had Beckett-trained winners; that's much the best form in this field but it also suggests limitations.
