Verdict

WESTERLAND found himself in at the deep end last time out at Royal Ascot on unfamiliar ground and he understandably struggled. The son of Frankel has been given some time to get over that and now finds a good opportunity to resume his progress. The likely ground will be fine and he sets a fair standard for his rivals to aim at here, ensuring he is very much the one they have to beat. Connect made a decent start at this track in June and can improve to be competitive here while Strategic is also likely to have some say. The Stoute-trained newcomer Ledham could prove the big threat to the selection while another debutant, La La Land, is also worth looking out for.
