In depth

Verdict

Amour de Nuit, A Soldier's Life and Combative are all looking to put below par efforts behind them. The latter makes most appeal of that trio receiving plenty of weight and steps up in trip today along with last week’s runner-up at Doncaster, Kiltara. Noble Silk has not won for some time now though he finished ahead of DAWN MISSILE when a close-up sixth over today’s distance at Ascot back in July. But the latter is fancied to turn the tables on these revised terms and come out best with Ryan Moore picking-up the ride for the Haggas yard.
