      Verdict

      LIVING LEGEND has returned from more than two years on the sidelines looking as good as ever and it would be no surprise if he reversed Newmarket running with Tyson Fury and landed a tricky heat. Sword Beach seems to reserve his best for Windsor but Title looks a danger as he was second in a Listed race at Hamilton after finishing third in the King Edward VII Stakes at Royal Ascot while Dark Jedi has placed at Musselburgh and York since winning at Ripon in July. Cardano was engaged in the 3.15 here yesterday.
