Verdict

Holiday For Kitten, well beaten in the King's Stands Stakes at Royal Ascot, won over a longer trip here a year ago but has reverted to sprinting in top form and landed a Grade 2 over 6f on Polytrack at Keeneland a month ago. REGALLY READY can take this as he won the Grade 1 Nearctic on the turf at Woodbine last month and scored on this track in May when he had last year's winner of this, Chamberlain Bridge, well behind. Havelock returned to winning ways when beating Perfect Officer and Country Day in a Grade 3 on the turf at Keeneland with Great Attack back in fifth. Hoofit was Grade 1 class in New Zealand and has done well enough since arriving here to make the frame while Caracortado has been going well over further and has enough pace to make his presence felt.
