Verdict
Burning Sword has been looking one-paced in all of his starts to date and may have to settle for a place again behind MIGHTY LEGEND. The latter hasn't been seen since the spring where he produced a couple of good runs in better class maidens than this so he can start making up for lost time. Land Of The Free makes a belated racecourse debut for Aidan O'Brien and wouldn't need anything special to make a successful start while Dermot Weld doesn't have many four-year-old maidens so Shinghari must be thought capable of winning a race.
