Verdict

St Leger winner Kew Gardens is sure to be popular for a yard that have enjoyed success here already this week following on from their Guineas exploits at the weekend but it's fair to suggest his best form has come on more galloping tracks and he might just prove a shade vulnerable on reappearance off top-weight. At a likely bigger price, a chance is taken on MORANDO who was impressive when stepping up in trip last time out and may have more to offer over longer distances this campaign. Magic Circle clearly enjoys himself round here and isn't one to rule out, despite the drop in class raising a slight concern.
