Verdict

LAYFAYETTE has taken his form up another notch this year and might be capable of confirming last month's C&D superiority over a few of these rivals. High Definition chased him home on that occasion and may do so again. Licence was also second to the selection at Naas in March and this very lightly-raced colt is another who should be involved at the finish.
