Verdict

The Daley Express won twice earlier in the year but has something to prove off his current mark and Alaadel hasn’t raced since winning at Newbury last autumn. Bernardo O'Reilly has been raised only 2lb for winning on the Turf course at Lingfield in June but would prefer some cut in the ground and the progressive MR WAGYU is preferred. He was winning for the fourth time this year when beating third-placed Englishman over course and distance and may not have finished improving yet.
