Forecasts

Enable (4/9), Japan (5/2), Sovereign (12/1), Anthony Van Dyck (12/1)

A disappointing field, but a potentially fascinating tactical clash between ENABLE and the Ballydoyle battalions, headed by Japan. That colt will appreciate the return to a mile and a half after finishing behind Enable in the Eclipse, but there is no reason to think that she won't benefit just as much given that was her first run of the season. Anthony Van Dyck was below form in the Hardwicke here last time, but his effort behind Ghaiyyath in the Coronation Cup puts him in the picture if bouncing back.
