Verdict

SLEEPING LION couldn't justify short odds at Ascot on his handicap bow, but still shaped well, and appeals as the only three-year-old in a field of exposed handicappers. Huge Future is feared most, assuming he can translate Meydan form back to the domestic scene, although Sofia's Rock probably didn't get home when tried over further at Goodwood, and should be competitive returned to his ideal trip.
