Verdict
A very valuable maiden and this year's renewal is a strong one with FINAL OBJECTIVE setting a high standard having been beaten only 1½ lengths in the Coventry at Royal Ascot. Dorigo did well under the circumstances when seventh of 25 in the Windsor Castle at the same meeting so rates the main threat ahead of Launch Sequence and Agrippa, who both look good prospects.
