    Verdict

    There may only be four runners in this but it is far from straightforward. King's Castle probably didn’t beat much at Beverley but there should be plenty more to come from the Haggas colt. Trumpet Man reappeared in the King George V Stakes at Royal Ascot while Stockbridge Tap ran an odds-on favourite to half-a-length here on just his second outing. MAMBO NIGHTS steps up in distance again but was always well in control when making all over 1m2f at Sandown last month. He is still improving and can win again.
