Verdict

ENEMY seemed unsuited by the way the race developed when fifth in the Ormonde Stakes at Chester 2 weeks ago but holds sound claims on these terms and gets the nod to get back on track. Nate The Great (runner-up 12 months ago) needs to shrug off a lesser effort at Ascot earlier this month but could bounce back if granted his own way in front. Low-mileage Roberto Escobarr can also get involved.
