        In depth

        Verdict

        Last year's Dewhurst Stakes fifth, Troubador, comes here with his reputation on a high following a decisive win in a three-runner race at Naas last time out when stepped up to a mile for the first time. If he is to justify his Queen Elizabeth II Stakes and Champion Stakes entries, he has to run a big race today. Much as last year's Hungerford Stakes winner With Reason comes out best of the others on official ratings, he has not been seen since finishing 13th of 15 in the Lockinge Stakes in May and seems to have had his problems. Therefore, Shot To Fame, who has scored at Group 3 level this season, Putra Pekan, who won at Listed level at Windsor in May from subsequent Group 3 scorer Ancient World, and the commendably consistent Millennium Force looks set to pose the selection his biggest problems. However, Troubador comes here with a very good reputation and can further enhance it by scoring here.
