Verdict

The smallest field since 2010 for the July Stakes and as usual, various form strands from Royal Ascot are represented against those that have won novices. The vote goes to WHISTLEJACKET, who failed to meet expectations when fourth in the Norfolk but this step back up to 6f looks the way to go. Ain't Nobody made it 2-2 in the Windsor Castle last month so he's most feared, ahead of Electrolyte, who went down by a flared nostril in the Coventry and is open to further progress.
