In depth
Verdict
Boleyn Castle won here over course and distance on June 15 with Fromsong (now seven pounds better off) two-and-a-quarter lengths behind in third, Carson County (nine pounds better off) a further length back in fifth, and Kier Park (now 16lb better off) a further length-and-a-quarter away. Palace Affair has done all of her winning at six and seven furlongs but comes here in good heart. Indian Prince ran well to be fifth in the King's Stands Stakes but carries a four-pound penalty for a Listed win. Prince Cyrano ran well under a big weight in the Wokingham while Nerys Dutfield carries a high opinion of Mizillablack. A tricky opener but Kier Park is fully entitled to run well.
