Verdict

EPSOM ICON won last year's renewal of this contest and she shaped like her turn may be near again last time at Ascot. Laugh Aloud should go well for yesterday's Oaks winning trainer if she handles the softer ground and the form of Czabo's win last time has recieved several boosts since that effort at the start of the season.
