Race preview

Hammer The Hammer is a progressive colt that fully deserves a crack at his elders after a sterling second-placed finish in the Palace Of Holyroodhouse at Royal Ascot. However, this is a power-packed renewal and another step forward is needed. Having shown resolution with a cheekpieces/tongue-tie combination tried at York most recently, ELMONJED could be the answer, with a penalty not an insurmountable burden. The resurgent Get It won this off 6lb lower 12 months ago and another must for the shortlist after landing the Wokingham at the Royal meeting. Completely Random, Apollo One and Purosangue also boast solid credentials.
