Verdict

The handicapper hasn't missed KOKBASTAU after Kempton but it still might not stop this fast-improving 3-y-o. Fellow 3-y-o My Love Is King failed to figure in a Group 3 at Royal Ascot but retains potential back from a break and is second choice ahead of Alcarath and last year's Balmoral winner Crown of Oaks, who has been given a bit of time to get over a below-par reappearance in Ireland.

    Verdict
    Well-bred colt who won novice at Southwell last month and found another chunk of improvement to score easily on handicap debut at Kempton (1½m again) 17 days ago. Hit with a 14 lb rise but there's almost certainly more to come.

    Verdict
    Kingman colt who chased home Maltese Cross in a Newbury novice on reappearance before runner-up in a Newmarket (1¼m, good) in May. Never a threat with cheekpieces added in the Hampton Court at Royal Ascot but returns from 10 weeks off as an unexposed 3-y-o from a top yard. A visor goes on now.

    Verdict
    Useful sort who posted his best effort in a handicap when close second of 14 over C&D (good to soft) in June. This low-mileage 4-y-o merits plenty of respect with Oisin Murphy taking the reins for the first time.

    Verdict
    Quickly developed into a smart performer last season, winning 3 of 4 starts in handicaps, including a game success in the Balmoral at Ascot. Well held in 1¼m Curragh Group 3 on reappearance in June but no surprise if he were to resume his progression now. Tongue tied first time.

    Verdict
    Shaped well when third in Lincoln at Doncaster (1m, good) and Victoria Cup at Ascot (7f, good to firm) this spring. Has ruined his chance with slow starts over 1m here and at Goodwood last twice. The longer trip gives him more time to recover if he misses the break again but he comes with risks.
