11/4 Kinross, 3/1 Shaquille, 7/2 Azure Blue, 4/1 Little Big Bear, 14/1 Khaadem, 16/1 Vadream, 20/1 Art Power, 33/1 Run To Freedom, 40/1 Emaraaty Ana.
VERDICT
In a gripping clash between two hugely progressive 6f performers, AZURE BLUE gets the narrow vote over Shaquille.
COMMENTS
Art Power Fourth in this race two years ago; has gained all four Group wins in Ireland; opposed
Azure Blue Very progressive; won the Duke Of York Stakes two months ago; 4-5 on the Newmarket tracks
Emaraaty Ana Beaten twice in this contest and looks unlikely to make it third time lucky
Khaadem Broke Group 1 duck with 80-1 win at Royal Ascot, albeit with the cards dropping perfectly
Kinross Ideally suited by slow ground; two Group 1 wins last autumn; a leading player on that form
Little Big Bear European champion 2yo in 2022; just over 1l behind Shaquille in the Commonwealth Cup
Run To Freedom Listed winner at Salisbury in May; came up well short back at the top level last time
Shaquille Overcame a poor start to land the Commonwealth Cup; now 5-5 over 6f; fast-improving colt
Vadream Very useful mare but is ground dependent; all turf wins on soft/heavy

Per la nota squalifica purtroppo non potrà essere presente il "nostro" Frankie !
L'unico gruppo 1 che manca nel suo palmares !
Peccato...

Shaquille !!!
Ma che brava Rossa Ryan , è vero che aveva il cavallo, ma vedere fantini che aggrediscono al momento giusto è sempre una bellezza !!!
