        Verdict

        Cap Ferrat bids for a quick follow up to Tuesday's Leicester success in this grade and is the selection ahead of Barman and Scent of Victory. Richard Hannon's charge is a hard ride and gave Darryll Holland a real workout when eventually wearing down Spitting Image at Leicester. He should have won more easily according to the ratings, but only ever does enough and now welcomes back Ryan Moore who won on him at Haydock in July. He has a realistic weight here and should make that count against the consistent Barman who always seems to find on or two too good, as does his stablemate Scent of Victory. Any moves in the market for Coolfore Jade should be noted as he comes from a shrewd stable, but if Ryan Moore has been in the gym, he should have enough strength to boot Cap Ferrat home.
