Verdict
This track poses a question for the quirky but seriously talented AL HUDAIBA but headgear ought to help his cause and already a winner in Grade 2 company, he can defy the 3 lb penalty. Pikachu was third to the selection in the aforementioned Newmarket race and he's the chief threat on form, though a bigger threat may emerge in the shape of Haffner

VerdictHas a few quirks (jinked and unseated rider when looking in control on second start) but has lots of ability and he overcame hanging under pressure to edge out Abraham Lincoln in Group 2 Superlative at Newmarket (7f) 17 days ago. Blinkers may just help him and major claims despite 3 lb penalty. - 3. HaffnerJ: Ryan MooreT: Aidan O'BrienF: 21

VerdictJustify colt who confirmed debut promise when justifying short-priced favouritism in a maiden at the recent Newmarket July meeting. Smart prospect who is sure to leave bare form well behind. - 4. PikachuJ: David EganT: Charlie JohnstonF: 253

VerdictHas improved with each start, posting a very useful performance when 1ΒΌ lengths third of 7 to Al Hudaiba in Group 2 Superlative at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) 17 days ago. 3 lb better off with that rival but arguably doesn't have same potential.

VerdictMade it 2-2 with a useful performance to defy a penalty at Ascot (7f, firm) 17 days ago. This talented colt looks more than ready for a step up in grade.

VerdictWinner of 2 novices at Salisbury this summer. The first came on testing ground he coped well with a much faster surface when seeing off 5 rivals over 7f 17 days ago. Capable of better again.

VerdictAttracted support and knew job when winning 7-runner maiden at the Curragh (5f, heavy) on debut for Jack Foley in March. Joined Joseph O'Brien after and ran a cracker pitched into the Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot (6f, good to firm) 3 months later. Up in trip and should have more to offer.- Unnamed Favourite
