Verdict

Godolphin have a strong hand in this contest and it's BAY OF POETS who makes most appeal for a yard in flying form. Things didn't pan out for him in the French Derby last time but he should do better back on faster ground and this trainer and jockey won this contest last year. Mirage Dancer is entirely unexposed and ran a little better than the bare result at Chester suggests last time while Irishcorrespondent and Tamleek are interesting each-way prospects who should get back on track here.
