Verdict

This rates a really competitive contest in which course and distance winner BEAT THE BANK is taken to shoulder co-topweight to victory. He has competed with credit in Group 1 and 2 company on his last three starts and his Ascot victory over Lord Glitters reads as the best form on offer. Altyn Orda has also been taking on the best of her sex this season and could prove dangerous in receipt of all allowances, whilst fellow filly Nyaleti could also go well for the record-breaking Johnston team. However, the admirably consistent Stormy Atlantic appeals as the logical danger and will have no issues returned to a mile after hunting up Benbatl in a German Group 1.
