He won a Group 2 first time in 2010 and, although he was only sixth at Royal Ascot last time, he met some interference and was not given a hard race. He might bounce back anytime.

He kept galloping all the way to the line and jockey says he thinks he can reverse form with Starspangledbanner this time.

He’s got another chance here, and it might be his last as he is shortly scheduled for a stud career.

However it should be pointed out that horses going on from the Golden Jubilee don’t have a great record in the July Cup, only one horse winning both races in recent times.

She has won five of her 15 starts and her trainer believes that if she had raced on the stand side of the track she would have finished at least second – instead of fourth - to Starspangledbanner in the Golden Jubilee Stakes at Royal Ascot last month. The stable are in great form.

Nonetheless she is going to have to raise her game to beat plenty of rivals who finished in front of her that day.

Connections remain mystified as to why he ran so badly but are fitting with him with blinkers in an attempt to help his concentration.

Three-year-olds have a very good record in this race – with over half of the last 30 runnings of this Group 1 prize being won by the three-year-old generation and his trainer has also won this race before. He is likely to be buried off the pace and produced with a late surge.
