Verdict

An above-standard renewal of this Group 2, BEAT THE BANK proved himself to be a capable Group One performer last time out at Royal Ascot and is way above these rivals at this level. He thrives from racing off a bend and can defy his penalty to give him successive wins in this race. Zaaki is a respected improver for a yard who thrive with that type of horse, but his wins this season look windy and can be taken on while Matterhorn looks to be establishing himself at this level but is likely to find one too good. Accidental Agent should go very close if he manages to leave the stalls this time.
