Verdict

The Haggas yard won this with a three-year-old last year and Tiber Flow returns to today’s trip having failed to figure in the Commonwealth Cup. But the in-form POGO (NAP) was beaten less than a length when attempting to make all in the Lennox Stakes at Goodwood and could take some pegging back if allowed his own way at the head of affairs here. Chindit won the Summer Mile at Ascot in between defeats in Group 1 company and is another to consider while Dubai Poet has a shout on his third in the Jersey Stakes at Ascot and is preferred to Double Or Bubble and Happy Romance.
