      Verdict

      With Antigone's Fire making little appeal on breeding and stable-mate Persian Embers appearing outclassed this should lie between the other four runners. The Barry Hills-trained Lakatoi is becoming expensive to follow and is more exposed than most, while Sir Michael Stoute's Masideha seems to be one of the yard's lesser lights. Henry Cecil's Queen Excalibur is entitled to improve on her debut effort at Salisbury in May and, though strictly held by John Gosden's Ticket To Dance on running there, she has to be respected but on all known evidence this should go to the Gosden horse.
