        Verdict

        Modern Games arrives fresh from success in the French 2000 Guineas and should stay this far. He beat the The Acropolis, Ancient Rome, Lassaut and Welwal at Longchamp and the latter pair are two of four runners representing Jean-Claude Rouget. Listed winner Al Hakeem and Group 3 trial winner Vadeni make up the rest of the quartet. Ryan Moore switches from The Acropolis to Ivy League but the latter finished behind IMPERIAL FIGHTER in the Irish 2000 Guineas. Andrew Balding’s charge finished a creditable third on that occasion and should go well at a price over this longer trip. El Bodegon has to put a poor effort in the Dante at York behind him while Onesto is an unexposed Group 2 winner at Saint-Cloud.
