Verdict

This looks deeper than the Super Sprint which BENGALI BOYS won in such impressive style, but he seems just as effective on a sound surface, and given how well he won that Newbury race there is every chance he can record a Listed victory at the first time of asking here. He must see off the challenge of Windsor Castle Stakes winner Sound And Silence now dropped back down to the minimum trip, which is sure to suit Charlie Appleby's charge, and To Wafij , who has finished behind some useful types in his recent races.
