        Verdict

        Arigato is improving with age. He won on the July course here last year and produced a career-best on soft ground over track and trip nine days ago. Arbalet has started favourite in both starts for David O’Meara and was only beaten a neck at Redcar last Sunday. Breath Of Air has only won at Newbury so far but trainer and jockey both think there is more to come from the four-year-old. BLOWN BY WIND wasn’t suited by the hustle and bustle of Royal Ascot and he was also drawn on the unfavoured far side. This smaller field will be much more his cup of tea and he beat Royal Hunt Cup third Pogo here at the start of the month.
