Verdict
Eddie's Boy is worse off at the weights than when beaten by Remarkable Force at Musselburgh and was almost two lengths behind ROCKET RODNEY in the Windsor Castle. George Scott’s gelding is clearly very speedy and can get his head back in front. Bakeel didn’t do a lot wrong when fifth in the Norfolk Stakes with the filly Cuban Mistress preferred to Rumstar of the remainder.
