2021 winner of this race and recent Group 3 second here puts him in with a big shout

Too keen in Guineas when below-best; down in trip and will prefer some rain

Return to her optimum trip to suit but needs to improve to play major role

Absent since below-par run here in August with cheekpieces now tried; bit to prove now
