Vaguely Royal
Comes here on the back of two third-place finishes but the latest was behind Trojan Soldier and there is no obvious reason why the placings would be reversed.

From the connections
“I rode Vaguely Royal at Chepstow last time, we made the running and a combination of him still being green and getting lonely in front cost us the race. We were very confident coming here today, I just wanted to make sure I got a lead. William was going pretty steady in front, I wound him up in plenty of time but he won cosily. He's not a slow horse and I wouldn't see him getting much further than a mile and a half - Kieran Shoemark, jockey.”
