      Verdict

      Bombyx won here as a juvenile and at Doncaster in a light 2018. He wasn't disgraced in a Sandown Group 3 on his reappearance so looks the one ARTHUR KITT has to beat. Tom Dascombe's colt has performed exclusively at Group and Listed level since opening with a double early last summer with a close fourth in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf the highlight. He hasn't improved much in two runs this campaign but this looks his chance to return to winning ways. What About Carlo has also been competing at a high level and the seven-times winner would have to be considered if the going eases considerably while Getchagetchagetcha is no forlorn hope as his best form came when beaten only 4l in the Group 2 Vintage Stakes at Goodwood in July. Cohesion finished last on his return after a very long break at Chelmsford and will probably need another run.
