    Verdict

    More Beautiful is a half-sister to the stable’s 2018 2000 Guineas winner Saxon Warrior and she made an impressive start at Naas. She is drawn under the stands’ rail and will take all the beating if that turns out to be an advantage but CAMPANELLE will have the far rail to help and could make all. Wesley Ward has won this three times and Frankie Dettori twice in the last four years and they team up again with last month’s easy Gulfstream Park winner, who should again beat stable companion Royal Approval. Sands Of Time was never in any danger at Lingfield and looks an early-season type but Newmarket winner Sacred looks a bigger danger. Star Of Emaraaty and Scarlet Bear both showed good pace at Haydock and could run well at bigger odds.
