Verdict

Not for the first time, BLUEKING D'OROUX just seemed to find his stamina stretched late in the day but still emerged with credit when finishing midfield in the Longwalk at Ascot 4 weeks ago. He looks to hold sound claims with his sights lowered back down in trip. Nemean Lion will find this more demanding than his assignment at Hereford but is respected, whilst it's feasible to think Iberico Lord and Salver both have more to offer.
