Verdict

CONFUCIUS was unable to reproduce his Coventry form when a close third in the Anglesey Stakes here but that came just 11 days after his run at Royal Ascot so is well worth another chance. His stablemate Carry The Flag is a potential threat back at 6f, while Immortal Guard finished just in front of Confucius in the Anglesey.
