Verdict

TORITO looked to finish with something in the tank when a promising third on his return at Newmarket last month and this lightly raced 4-y-o makes plenty of appeal here. Botanical looks more than ready for the step up to pattern company after his decisive York victory and is feared most, whilst Astro King and Haunted Dream are likeable performers who should go well at bigger odds.
