        Verdict

        Monterosso is the highest rated of these and the 2010 King Edward VII winner made a brilliant debut here a year ago landing a Grade 2 before beaten less than a length in the World Cup. That's his target again and Godolphin are very strongly represented here with Frankie on board Prince Bishop and Kieren Fallon partnering Mendip. They met here a month ago when the latter came out on top, as he should do again though Richard's Kid, who finished sixth, could improve past the pair of them as he was returning after a year's absence. BOLD SILVANO gets the vote as he was in brilliant form here a year ago and was odds-on when making his reappearance a month ago but found a mile too short when looking in need of the run. Silver Pond might almost have snatched the Hong Kong Vase with a clear run but may find this too short and has no experience on the surface.
