      Verdict

      Remember The Days failed to win last year but is usually thereabouts and is fitted with headgear today. Lopes Dancer is 3lb higher than when scoring over track and trip in September while Sulafaat has gone close on a couple of occasions since winning here last month and is preferred to both Champagne Rules and Madeeh. But SUPERYACHT is an interesting recruit for David O’Meara having placed in maiden company for Sir Michael Stoute’s yard when last in action way back in 2016. Gelded subsequently, he’s a half-brother to Group 3 winners Pakati and Modun and gets a speculative vote despite the long absence.
