Verdict

Big Storm Coming is one of several course and distance winners and was taking on a bit more than he could cope with in a ladies' race at Ascot on his hat-trick bid after two victories at Epsom. Gometra Ginty was always in the front rank and ran on strongly to beat Battle Of Waterloo over the track and trip and can confirm the form on 3lb worse terms. She had earlier finished a close fourth behind NORTHERNPOWERHOUSE and How Bizarre here and it's Bryan Smart's colt who may just have the edge again. Oriental Lilly, five times a winner on the all-weather, is 1-25 on Turf yet on the same mark.
