Gosden colt has the class

LEAD ARTIST (3.00) is expected to draw clear of his rivals to win the Group Two bet365 Mile at Sandown

- 

The son of Dubawi scored twice at Group Three level after finishing second on his debut in the Wood Ditton at Newmarket a year ago, and looks the type to develop into a top-class four-year-old for the John and Thady Gosden team.

Charlie Johnston was successful in the bet365 Esher Cup last season with Naamoos, having previously won with the horse the previous week at Musselburgh, and THUNDER WONDER (4.50) can follow suit.
