Verdict
Would Be King has produced two very good runs over 6f here and looks certain to appreciate the extra furlong so looks certain to go close. Bond Street started favourite on his debut here but weakened quickly in the soft ground after racing up with the pace. His stable also run GUSTAV KLIMT, who looked in need of the experience behind Commander Grigio here in May and with the longer trip in his favour can take this under Ryan Moore. Amedeo Modigliani is another representing the yard and the son of Galileo has a Group 1 entry. South East made a promising start at Limerick and is certain to have come on for the run while Dermot Weld's newcomer Imaging, the third foal of a mare who has produced two winners, is one to keep an eye on in the market.
