Verdict

SAGA looked unlucky when just failing in the Britannia Stakes (C&D Handicap) at the Royal Meeting last month and, with good-value claimer Benoit de la Sayette offsetting over half of the subsequent 8 lb rise, he's strongly fancied to gain compensation. Atrium has a run style that is ideally served by the straight track here, so he commands plenty of respect, while Tempus and Random Harvest complete the shortlist.
