CHALLY CHUTE has been a revelation for new connections, winning a listed race before an unlucky second in a big-field handicap at this C&D. Better than ever at 7, he's primed for this Group 3. Uxmal, a smart stayer and impressive winner at Royal Ascot in 2024, should be sharper after his comeback run. Island Hopping looks the pick of the 3-y-os.
