        Verdict

        Another excellent line-up for this valuable sales race, in which we will shortlist Titus Alone, Danjet, Shermeen, Azygous and Triskadekaphobia but opt for Hot. Trainer Richard Hannon has an enviable record in this race and he seems to be most strongly represented here by Hot, who has lived up to his name in winning his last two races. If he is Hannon's best option, he commands plenty of respect, although do not rule out a good run from Godfrey Street from the same yard. The Windsor Castle Stakes winner, Titus Alone, is afforded plenty of respect as he bids to extend his unbeaten sequence to four, while Danjet came back to form last time and this speedy type is respected, while the Queen Mary Stakes ninth, Shermeen, is another to consider. That last comment applies also to Triskaidekaphobia, who romped to victory at York last time and who hails from a stable in form, while Rod Millman is strongly represented by the Brocklesby winner, Phantom Whisper, who would have needed the run last time, and the unbeaten Azygous, who has a nice racing weight for this contest. Finally, Always Hopeful hails from a yard that is doing well with its two-year-olds but he looks a little high in the weights. This, in turn, returns us to the selection, which is Hot.
