Verdict

A Group 1 hat-trick beckons for SHAQUILLE, who has come a long way in a relatively short space of time and his big-race victories at Royal Ascot and Newmarket were all the more meritorious given his antics at the start. He appears to be versatile both ground and tactics-wise and there could easily be more to come from this colt. The progressive Mill Stream gets the nod ahead of Spycatcher, Saint Lawrence and Sacred for forecast purposes.
