TRAWLERMAN (3) hasn't had Kyprios to contend with this season and looks poised to go two spots better than when third in this twelve months ago. The top class John and Thady Gosden trained stayer looked imperious winning the G1 Ascot Gold Cup by 7L here in June and can complete a four-timer following a smooth success attempting the 2m1/2f G2 Lonsdale Cup at York in August. Danger could come from STAY TRUE (5). Aidan O'Brien trains the unexposed three-year-old receiving 8lb from the former. Shapes as though there could be more to come for a good third in the 1m7f G1 St Leger Stakes at Doncaster last month. Set Weights EET WILLIAM (2) found success in the G2 Doncaster Cup and can go well once more. AL QAREEM (1) rates next best.
