      Verdict

      Three-year-olds have won all three previous renewals of this classified stakes and are probably favoured by the weights at this time of year. BULLINGDON has been fairly consistent this year and will appreciate the return to a mile after failing to find an extra gear over 7f last time at Windsor. Kaeso only found one too good at Redcar after winning over an extended 7f at Chester but last month’s Newbury winner Breden may prove the pick of the older horses, though shares the same handicap mark as Graphite Storm, Isomer and Leader Writer, who won the handicap on this card 12 months ago. Easy Tiger usually finds at least one too good and Sir Hamilton is best on Polytrack.
