G2 – 1200m – Turf

1 Berkshire Shadow Won G2 at Royal Ascot over 1200m. Soft ground against him when second in G2 over 1400m since. A good chance.
2 Lusail Improved to win G2 over 1200m last month. Likely to improve more and a fair chance.
3 American Star Run well in all three appearances, winning maiden race nicely last month. This a step up in class but not ruled out.
4 Eldrickjones 66-1 when runner-up in G2 at Royal Ascot. Not disgraced but well held in two G2s since. An unlikely winner.
5 Fearby Easy winner of Listed race last month before creditable second in G3 at Goodwood, both over 1000m. Should stay 1200m. A fair chance.
6 Gis A Sub Won fair race before sixth of seven, not beaten far, in slowly run G2 at Goodwood. Needs to improve.
7 Last Crusader Form in two novice races (won one) not good enough. An unlikely winner.
8 Orazio Won novice race before encouraging third in Listed event over 1200m last month. Needs to improve.
9 Spitting Feathers This a big step up from success in small novice race in June. An unlikely winner.
10 Twilight Jet £210,000 2-y-o. Respectable performances in two competitive G2s before well held in G1. Another tough task.
11 Vintage Clarets Good third in G2 over 1200m at Royal Ascot before slightly disappointing run in valuable Sales race. An outside chance.
