      Verdict

      Despite not having won since last year's Hardwicke Stakes, IDAHO (NAP) is clear top-rated here which is hardly surprising given all of his subsequent starts have been at Group 1 level. He'll find this much less daunting than chasing the likes of Enable and Hawkbill and should get back to winning ways. Danehill Kodiac has to carry a penalty for his Group 3 victory at Ascot and though he's a solid and reliable performer at this level he has a stiff task conceding weight all-round. Duretto was narrowly beaten into third in this a year ago before landing a Listed race on the course in September so obviously goes well on the track. Dylan Mouth has a superb 13-27 strike-rate and always goes well fresh, as does Elidor though he'll need to improve. Muntahaa was a long way behind the selection in the Hardwicke and ran poorly on his final start at Newmarket in July.
