In depth
Verdict
Tim Easterby has done well with COUNT D’ORSAY since he arrived in the yard. He won twice at Ripon last year and made a very promising reappearance at Newmarket before finding 6f too far in the Wokingham consolation at Royal Ascot. This should be more his cup of tea. Camacho Chief blew the start here last month and comes into contention along with Only Spoofing. A Momentofmadness won the Portland here in 2018 and was second in the race last year but is having a first run since a couple of poor runs in Dubai at the start of the year.
