ADAYAR has had his training troubles but the handicapper rates him some way superior to today’s rivals and while he was a little disappointing in the Prince Of Wales’s Stakes at Royal Ascot, it would be a major surprise were the 2021 Derby winner to be turned over today. Israr proved a progressive handicapper last term and he ran a fair race in defeat in the Aston Park Stakes at Newbury. Grand Alliance was well held in the Hardwicke Stakes while Global Storm faces no easy task in trying to give weight away to all of his rivals this afternoon.
