Verdict
Englishman is more than capable of this sort of mark but does seem to reserve his best for Windsor nowadays. Russian Realm got back to winning ways here last month and, still well treated on past form, can again beat Toofi and Somewhere Secret. Manshood has won a couple of times on good to soft at Hamilton this summer but Sitar is a Nottingham specialist and was well beaten in lesser company last time. HYPERFOCUS could give Hugo Palmer and Josephine Gordon a quick double as he’s been holding his own against better opposition since only beaten a length off this mark at Sandown in April – he’s less exposed than the majority of these sprinters.
