Verdict

EXOPLANET improved again when third in the competitive London Gold Cup at Newbury last month, shaping well having had the worst of the draw, so he can continue his progress to take the step up in grade in his stride and resume winning ways. Heading the list of dangers is Torito, who impressed when scoring at Epsom on his latest outing, while Caernarfon and Bold Act also merit consideration.
