    Verdict

    Kevin Ryan’s pair Crypto Quest and Kodebreaker look modest on the evidence so far. ELDRICKJONES has disappointed twice over 7f but his form over this trip is excellent and includes a second in the Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot. It will be a major shock if he doesn’t prove too good for Luxor Flush, twice narrowly beaten at Beverley, and newcomer Overdraft.
