VIBRANT CHORDS is less exposed than most in the field and he ran well here last time out; he could be hard to beat for a yard in form. Evergate interesting runner and he may be capable of more improvement for a trainer who has a fine record with sprinters. Lexington Abbey has been in good form this year and he completes the shortlist with Ryan Moore taking over for the first time today.
