Verdict

ANNAF looks the one to beat having defied top weight in the Portland at Doncaster 3 weeks ago and his third in the King's Stand Stakes at the Royal Meeting confirms he handles this track. Thriving 3-y-o Dark Trooper is feared most as he bids for a 5-timer, ahead of another in-form sort Commanche Falls.
