      Verdict

      Romanised ran with credit in a Group 1 at the Curragh last time but his habit of slow starting is slightly off-putting and a chance is taken with CONNECT . Clive Cox has been in fine form with his juveniles this campaign and there was plenty to like about the way he won over course and distance last time. Masar and Purser are obvious dangers with the former narrowly preferred after an impressive run at Royal Ascot last time out.
