Verdict

The vote goes to BARBADOS, who failed to stay in the Queen Alexandra Stakes at Royal Ascot and is much better judged on his third in a good-quality staying handicap at the Curragh the time before. Last year's winner Master of Reality is likely to bounce back from a below-par showing at Leopardstown in May, while Federica Sophia also warrants respect.

  1. BARBADOS (IRE)
  2. MASTER OF REALITY (IRE)
  3. FEDERICA SOPHIA (IRE)
