DURETTO comes out best on official ratings here and, though just one run this season (an excellent third in the Group 3 Ormonde Stakes here) suggests he's had issues, he should take some stopping in underfoot conditions which are right up his street. Former Group 2 winner Across The Stars shaped better than the bare result suggests at Windsor last time and may prove most troublesome, though Ralph Beckett captured this prize 12 months ago with a three-year-old filly and sends out a similar type in Rich Legacy.
