Verdict

All eyes will be firmly affixed to the unbeaten DESERT CROWN, who makes his eagerly-awaited comeback in a race that his yard has won with several high-class performers in recent years. The Nathaniel colt was most impressive in the Derby on just his third career start last June and, though absent since owing to an injury, it's unlikely that he will be found wanting fitness-wise. Cash could be the one for the forecast, given that Hukum is likely to find this trip too sharp.
