Not beaten too far when sixth of eight five weeks ago; generally struggled of late and a while since he's been in the winners' enclosure (last win in 2023); passed over with a few rivals in good form.

On a hat-trick and proven that he knows how to get his head in front (seeking a fourth career win); scored narrowly in a stakes race when accounting for two of these (Kenilworth) in June.

Verdict

Soho Heartthrob looks dangerous, and In A Timely Manner might have a say. However, MIAMI SUMMER is top of the list. He bids for a third course success.
