Verdict

VIRSITO showed a good attitude to score over a similar trip here last time and is expected to give a good account once more. Total Command is feared most, though a big run from Bodie Island would also come as no surprise.

Verdict

Ridingwiththedevil needs to improve on her latest effort over C&D if she is to figure and of more interest is GOOD CATHOLIC GIRL, who took a big step forward when runner-up over this trip at Belmont last time. Requestada is no forlorn hope either now dropped in grade.

Verdict

HEAR THE FOOTSTEPS was putting in his best work in the finish when third over 6f at Belmont last time and gets the verdict now granted this stiffer test. Sanctify and Majestic Raffy are the pair expected to give the selection most to think about.

Verdict

DANGEROUS COWBOY shaped with plenty of promise when second over the extended 5f here on debut and is taken to go one better with the benefit of that run behind him. Jimbaran Bay and Mariano Intheninth can chase the selection home for the minor money.

Verdict

Mononoke and Cajun Wedding are closely matched on their recent Belmont run over 6f and are unlikely to be far away but preference is for LEMON AND HONEY, who could better her recent course fourth now dropped in both trip and grade.

Verdict

ROMAN APPROVAL has been running respectably in defeat in tougher races than this of late and is taken to make the most of a drop in class to land a fourth career victory. Bridgeville and Bigger Picture arrive on top of their game and also figure prominently on the shortlist.

Verdict

KENZADARGENT was third in Group 2 company when last sighted at Chantilly in June and merits a market check now eased in grade on her first start for a new trainer. Fade To Black, a nose second over track and trip latest, looks the main danger ahead of the consistent Pretty Fancy.

Verdict

WATERGATE turned a fair effort when third over 5f here on debut last month and the experience is unlikely to have been lost on him so he's taken to strike second time out. Banana Thief can give the selection most to think about, though any money for newcomer Gear Jammer would also be notable.
