Verdict

Last year's winner MIRAGE DANCER defends a 2-2 record over C&D having also taken a Group 3 here at the big festival last summer and looks the one to beat again. His trainer couldn't be in better form right now and his course form supplements the fact he's best on ratings. Rock Eagle appeared to relish this trip when last spotted taking a valuable pot at Newmarket and could improve, while Barsanti can surely leave his recent Ascot run behind and get competitive.
