Verdict

A high-quality King George. JANGO BAIE was very impressive on his Ascot reappearance and might be worth siding with to improve past top-class Willie Mullins pair Gaelic Warrior and Fact To File, who served up a treat in the John Durkan at Punchestown last month. Unbeaten chaser The Jukebox Man is another fascinating contender.
