      Verdict

      The favourite has won four of the last five renewals and ROMSDAL will likely prove a warm order in this. Clear at the weights, John Gosden's charge ended last season with a second to Kingston Hill in the St Leger and should cope with today's drop back in distance. Solar Deity has come up against a couple of progressive types in Mindurownbusiness and Tryster recently and should go well along with Red Galileo, who hails from last year's winning yard. Aussie Reigns and Afonso De Sousa have a bit to find in this company.
