Verdict

A much-anticipated clash between OMBUDSMAN, Timeform's highest-rated horse in Europe, and Constitution River, who established himself as the best middle-distance 3-y-o around with his smooth win in the Eclipse. The latter looks capable of even bigger performances but Godolphin's superstar is still taken to become the first back-to-back winner of this since Halling 30 years ago. Item has landed a pair of Group 2 wins over C&D this year and may prove best of the remainder.

  1. OMBUDSMAN (IRE)
  2. CONSTITUTION RIVER (FR)
