Verdict

Hard to rule out any of the quintet in this extremely valuable Group 3 but a 1-8 record grossly undersells DEL MARO's level of ability so Charlie Appleby's colt gets the nod having been beaten by the narrowest of margins the last twice. Point of Law finished a couple of places behind the selection at Royal Ascot and he may emerge as the chief threat, with Alderman rounding off the shortlist following his fast-finishing fifth in the Derby.
