Verdict

COMANCHE BRAVE took his form to a new level when gaining his Group 1 breakthrough in the July Cup at Newmarket and the way in which he went about that strongly suggests the drop to 5f won't be an inconvenience. He looks the answer, with Nunthorpe second and fourth Starlust and Time For Sandals (second choice) heading the opposition.
