Arguably the best sprinter in training in his heyday, LIMATO would have been off to stud by now if he wasn't a gelding. He remains a top drawer performer as he has shown by winning Listed races with ease the last twice and he should be able to complete the hat-trick here if in the same form. Dream Of Dreams and Projection are closely matched on their Newbury third and second respectively but this time Sir Michael Stoute's charge can come out on top with conditions here ideal for him. Projection was unfortunate to be in the wrong group behind Limato last time out.
