Verdict

Space Blues justified favouritism in this last year when beating Duke Of Hazzard, Escobar and Safe Voyage. He failed to do himself justice at Meydan in March but that was over 6f and he is much better over this trip when having a bend to race around. Stable companion Creative Force won the Jersey Stakes before finishing fifth in the July Cup so looks a big threat while Kinross was impressive in a Group 3 at Haydock in May. Recent rain is a big plus for HAPPY POWER, who is back over 7f for the first time since beating Pogo in this grade at Newmarket in October. The King Power runner has run well in both the Lockinge and the Diamond Jubilee this year and was too keen at Ascot last time. Khuzaam, however, is starting to look a Polytrack specialist.
