Ask Dillon may have come up short at the highest level last time, but he has some very solid form to his name and should appreciate the drop back to this level. He can go close, but he looks vulnerable to the potential improver DOLPHIN SQUARE. The five-year-old's debut success came over an inadequate trip, and with almost half a mile further to travel in this race, his proven stamina should be an asset. Blackjack Kentucky receives weight from the aforementioned pair. He has to prove himself on good ground, but if he handles it, he could be a player. Mr Pumblechook is not written off.
