Verdict

A dual winner at Ascot this year, Juan De Montalban is upped a further 5lb while Cormier won back on the Flat at Chester though wouldn’t want the going any faster. Lord Protector represents last year’s winning yard but finished behind third-placed Moktasaab at Goodwood and both step up in trip. MAHRAJAAN put a poor effort here behind him when returning to today’s distance at Newmarket and beaten only a neck. Cheekpieces may help bring further progress and the Haggas gelding gets the vote. Amtiyaz and Charging Thunder have won over 1m6f recently and the latter finished in front of both Onesmoothoperator and Angel Power at Ascot last time while Thundering faces a tougher task.
