      Verdict

      BENBATL returned from a lay-off to make all in this last year, scoring by a wide-margin. A repeat looks on the cards unless the return to this course and distance sees Kameko return to form. The 2000 Guineas winner appeared not stay the 1m2f in the Juddmonte International last time while Regal Reality will appreciate the return to faster going having won a Group 3 at Salisbury earlier with a disappointing Duke Of Hazzard well beaten. The progressive Tilsit remains unexposed on the back of a Group 3 success at Goodwood and is preferred to Top Rank but Urban Icon and Zabeel Prince have it all to do on these terms.
