    Verdict

    Risen Sun led until the final furlong in a Listed race at Doncaster last time that's worked out well. He has to be a threat to recent winners BEST OF TIMES and Desert Force getting 5lb but we still fancy the Godolphin colt to come out on top as he was most impressive at Goodwood and several of those behind have run well since. Desert Force is easily the pick of Richard Hannon's pair but could end up in a duel for the lead with Risen Sun.
