Verdict

A tricky contest with no committed front-runner in a small field. Time To Study edges it at the weights and won over 1m6f at Doncaster before failing to figure in the Cesarewitch. It was soft ground when Duke Of Bronte scored at Ascot last month but an earlier attempt at today’s trip doesn’t boost confidence and a chance is taken there is more to come from ROYAL LINE. The latter remains unbeaten having won on his handicap debut in heavy going at Haydock and John Gosden’s colt has more scope than either of today’s rivals.
