Formscan - Australian sprinter ARTORIUS didn't enjoy the smoothest of passages when finishing third in last year's renewal of this contest and compensation could await. The Freedman-trained colt arrives in good form having added another Group 1 trophy to his cabinet at Randwick and then losing little in defeat at Rosehill just two weeks later. The son of Flying Artie can put his experience to good use and record a first success on these shores. Wellington will likely enjoy not running into Sha Tin superstar Lucky Sweynesse this time and is feared most on his first visit to Ascot, with Ryan Moore, who has ridden the six-year-old to success in the Hong Kong Sprint, a shrewd-looking jockey booking. Highfield Princess and Kinross head the list of dangers for the home team in an open-looking contest.
