Verdict
This looks a very competitive Group 3 featuring several in-form sprinters. Tis Marvellous arrives on a hat-trick and had Significantly five lengths behind when winning the Listed Beverley Bullet three weeks ago. Only a neck separated King's Lynn and Moss Gill at Haydock in May and both have been quite highly tried since. Khaadem came back to form at Doncaster 10 days ago but HURRICANE IVOR also scored at the St Leger meeting, defying a big weight to land the Portland. There will also be an end-to-end gallop in this and William Haggas’ four-year-old may end up best placed to pounce late and land the spoils.
