      Verdict

      KOOL KOMPANY (NAP) returned to action with victory in the Craven Stakes at Newmarket but has been well beaten in Group 1 races since. Clear at the weights in this, he can return to winning ways. Zarwaan got his head back in front returned to handicap company last time while Intransigent failed to figure in the Wokingham but will be more at home over this longer trip. Dusky Queen may prove better suited to this 7f than her stablemate Gabrial but Lightning Thunder has struggled so far this year and Miracle of Medinah has it all to do on these terms.
