Verdict

Four of these clashed in the Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot, with the other pair running in the Queen Mary at the same meeting, although only Advertise and SERGEI PROKOFIEV are of serious interest here, with the latter taken to make up the neck deficit from Ascot given he didn't get the best of runs that day. So Perfect could pick up the pieces if either of the front pair fail to fire.
