REGAL REALITY went down by just a head in the Group 2 Joel Stakes at Newmarket last time and, now dropping into listed company for the first time this year, Sir Michael Stoute's 8-y-o is fancied to double his tally for the year having just his second outing on a synthetic surface. This could well be a pipe-opener for Blue Trail before heading back to Meydan, so he's put forward as the main threat, with Foxes Tales rounding off the shortlist.
