Verdict

A fascinating contest which can go the way of HUKUM, who acquitted himself well in Group 2 company when third in the Hardwicke Stakes at Royal Ascot 3 weeks ago and holds leading claims here with a first-time tongue tie fitted. The main threat could be Ilaraab, who didn't really get a fair crack in the same contest last time after meeting trouble, ahead of Irish-raider Sonnyboyliston.
