Verdict

BLACK CAESAR never seems to run a bad race here. He is weighted to reverse running in September with Good Luck Charm and it will be a surprise if he’s not in the firing-line again. Bounty Pursuit was only beaten a nose at Kempton last month but is not as efficient on Turf and may struggle to confirm Kempton running in September with Balgair, who is a pound better off and recorded his only win so far on good going over this trip. Zlatan is starting to slip down the weights and can’t be ignored.
