    Form & Verdict
    Won with something to spare on debut at Salisbury (7f, good to firm) in June and he was a 1l third in the Group 3 Solario Stakes at Sandown (7f, good to soft) a fortnight ago on his second start; this highly regarded colt looks a type who will continue to progress and he's in calculations today.

    Form & Verdict
    1-2 favourite when winning by just over 3l on last month's debut at Newmarket (7f, good to firm); that form is yet to receive a positive boost but he was certainly impressive and this well-bred Frankel colt is a classy prospect who could play a leading role now upped in grade.

    Form & Verdict
    Backed into 4-1 when winning on debut at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) in July and again attracted market support when runner-up in the Group 3 Acomb at York (7f, good) last month; it looked a quality contest last time and he's in good hands to continue to improve; respected.

    Form & Verdict
    Won at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) in July on his second start and he followed up in a Listed race at Deauville (1m, heavy) three weeks ago; he's in a hotter race here but he won by nearly 2l last time and is not ruled out.

    Form & Verdict
    Won on debut at the Curragh (6f, good) in May before ninth of 25 in the Listed Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot (6f, good to firm), and he was suited by the step up to 1m when a Listed winner at Gowran Park (1m, good) last month; he's at 7f today but is Aidan O'Brien's sole representative in the race and could have more left in the tank; possible player.

    Form & Verdict
    Won on debut at Newbury (6.5f, good to soft) in June and he's run with credit in defeat in Group/Listed races on his three starts since (7f, good to firm/good); however, it seems likely his limitations will again be exposed this afternoon.

    Betting Forcast

    7/1 Breacher, 4/5 Desert Castle, 6/1 Gentle Hurricane, 9/1 Rosberg, 11/2 Sergei Diaghilev, 14/1 Silver Dominion

    Verdict

    The well-bred Frankel colt Desert Castle impressed for Godolphin on his debut at Newmarket last month and could play a leading role but this is a much tougher test of his credentials. The highly regarded BREACHER still looked a work in progress when a close third in the Group 3 Solario Stakes at Sandown recently, indicating he should be capable of better still, and he is the selection ahead of the Acomb runner-up Gentle Hurricane.[Ben Hutton]
