In depth
Verdict
A winner on the Turf at Meydan in January, Quick Wit drops back in trip for his first start since March and could prove dangerous if Frankie decides to set his own pace in front. Dimension was sent off favourite for the Royal Hunt Cup at Ascot last time and wasn't beaten far in eighth. He should be in the firing-line once again while Haamaat has every chance back over today's trip having gone close in Listed company over 6f at Kempton last month. Justonefortheroad has failed to figure since landing a double back in April though an apprentice's claim puts him back on a winning mark but YAIR HILL gets the nod. A progressive three-year-old, he finished just behind placed horses Noble Citizen and Citrus Star at Goodwood on his return but John Dunlop's charge is taken to reverse running and come out best today.
