Verdict

Just Hubert is in terrific form and seeks a third course victory. He should go close to completing his hat-trick but we’ll give another chance to BODYLINE, who pulled much too hard trying 2m for the first time at York when well behind Themaxwecan but should stay having won over 1m6f. Indigo Times’ surprise victory at Newmarket was his first on Turf but he may well have more to offer, though he was well behind Just Hubert at Ascot.
