Formscan - It takes substance to win this race and although 2021 winner Trueshan has that in abundance, it's most likely one of the younger horses will come to the fore, with ILLINOIS suggested as the leading candidate. Having won the Ormonde at Chester before a gallant second in the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot last month, the son of Galileo looks a natural successor to Kyprios as Ballydoyle's leading stayer. The hat-trick seeking French Master and last year's runner-up Sweet William can ensure the Gosdens also have a big say.
