    Verdict

    William Haggas saddled the favourite in this 12 months ago and has a couple entered this time. ROOSSEY is first reserve but is lightly raced and would have an outstanding chance on his latest second at Newmarket to subsequent Stewards' Cup winner Magical Memory when he finished ahead of Primrose Valley and stable companion Squats. If he doesn't get a run, Midlander might be the one to be on as he was far from disgraced from a poor draw when bidding for a five-timer at Goodwood. Acolyte also arrives in decent form, though he's not yet managed a win on Turf. Desert Force and Grandad's World look the pick of the remainder over this trip.
