Verdict

This is likely to go to one of the 3-y-os, WITCH HUNTER or Sterling Knight. Choosing between them isn't easy, but Witch Hunter has fewer miles on the clock and is appealing now pitched into a handicap having chased home the highly progressive El Caballo in a listed event on the all-weather in March. Sterling Knight wasn't disgraced at Royal Ascot recently when bidding for the hat-trick and is clear second choice ahead of Indian Creak.

  1. WITCH HUNTER (FR)
  2. STERLING KNIGHT
  3. INDIAN CREAK (IRE)
