      Verdict

      DANTE’S VIEW is proving slightly frustrating having now placed in all five starts. But he was beaten only a nose at Leicester last time and given Sir Michael Stoute’s impressive strike rate at the track, he gets another chance in this. Lopes Dancer won this in 2017 and went close here again on his penultimate start while Autretot scored over 1m2f at the track earlier and attempts this longer trip for the first time. Asian Angel is usually thereabouts without winning and that could be the case again today.
