Race Tip

All eyes will be on CITY OF TROY (4) aiming to give trainer Aidan O'Brien a record-extending eighth success in this prestigious G1 and become the first horse to complete the Epsom Derby-Coral Eclipse since Golden Horn in 2015. This sparkling son of Justify stamped his place in the history books with a fine performance in the Epsom Derby last month and will take beating now dropping back to 1m2f for the first time. DANCING GEMINI (5) endured a rough passage finishing sixth in the Epsom Classic. Unlikely to reverse form though it wouldn't surprise were he to go closer. The G1 Prix du Jockey Club (1m2 1/2f) fourth GHOSTWRITER (6) also warrants thought. AL RIFFA (1) might figure for the exotics.
