Verdict

INSPIRED arrives in great form and can follow up his Goodwood success last week under a penalty. Alpha Capture has been a model of consistency this season and should be thereabouts again, while the 3-y-o Substance can't be ruled out on just his third start for current yard. Of the rest, Callisto Dream and Lir Speciale can't be completely ruled out.
