Verdict

John Gosden runs three with STILETTO preferred in first-time headgear. The Frankel colt has improved with every start and finished ahead of stablemate Law Of The Sea when runner-up at Chelmsford last time. The latter is also one of three Godolphin runners with the newcomer First Order, a half-brother to five winners including a Group 3 winner, making most appeal of those. Kempton third Lorca can get involved with any further progress while Doublethetrouble finished in front of Nellie Moon at Lingfield and the filly Good Soul is penalised for winning over 1m2f at Newcastle.
