Verdict

The Gosden yard has won three of the last four of these and ALZAHIR was only beaten a short-head by Naval Power, who went on to complete a four-timer, over the course and distance before pulling much too hard in the Chesham. The winner's yard is represented by Pherenikos, a half-brother to the 2000 Guineas winner Coroebus. Guiteau, beaten a short-head over 6f at Windsor, missed the break and never got close in the 5f Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot. Ssenwan is by Dark Angel out of a two-year-old winner in the USA so should have plenty of pace but Resolute Man is bred for middle-distances.
