      Verdict

      TOORMORE (NAP) has improved since finishing runner-up in last year's renewal with placed efforts over a mile in Group 1 races including a second in the Lockinge in May. He should have the measure of these sporting Godolphin colours for the first time. Jersey stakes winner Dutch Connection ran a terrific race in a Group 1 event in France last time and has strong claims while Safety Check has his first start since landing a couple of Group 2 contests at Meydan early this year. Limato could prove a threat if staying the extra furlong but Aeolus has ran below par in previous attempts at 7f. The remainder are all of similar ability with the selection's stablemate Tupi perhaps proving best of them.
