ELDRICKJONES should go well after finishing excellent second behind Berkshire Shadow in Coventry stakes at Royal Ascot last month ,that was very good effort after finding trouble in running and having to come down the unfavoured centre of the track,though going off unfancied 66-1 shot there looked no fluke about that performance . Odds around 4-1 look solid each-way value .

 

VALUE PRICE 4-1 OR ABOVE 

 

Project Dante looks possible danger after finishing unlucky third in Norfolk Stakes over 5f at Royal Ascot ,that was decent effort after not getting best of runs ,though not certain to improve over this extra furlong .

 

Of the others Aleezdancer  could go well at decent odds ,after winning two minor events in impressive style at Beverley & Catterick ,takes big step up in class ,though looks open impovement with Ryan Moore looking interesting jockey booking for Kevin Ryan.
