    Verdict

    Sir Michael Stoute won this last year and has Saeer entered this year. He’s been gelded since a couple of modest runs last term when too green to do himself justice. MONTANARI also has an absence to overcome but he was also green last year and better is expected. Baryshnikov has been battling away in handicaps and has only finished out of the frame once this season but is now 0-14. Lumination looks the pick of the remainder on his form last year at Windsor.
