Verdict

Little between the principals on form but the likeable SWEET WILLIAM has no Kyprios to contend with this time so is fancied to resume winning ways after very good efforts in the Ascot Gold Cup and Goodwood Cup. In-form stablemate Gregory could emerge as the main danger, although past winners Trueshan and Coltrane both need consiering too in a fascinating Doncaster Cup.
