Verdict

A winner of his sole previous run over 7f, THREAT is appealing back down in class having contested the St James's Palace and July Cup the last twice. He showed enough in those races to suggest that he has trained on. Dream of Dreams posted a terrific effort on return at Royal Ascot and should make a bold bid to go one better than in this race 2 years ago. He is feared most ahead of Surf Dancer.
