Verdict
The well-bred Frankel colt Desert Castle impressed for Godolphin on his debut at Newmarket last month and could play a leading role but this is a much tougher test of his credentials. The highly regarded BREACHER still looked a work in progress when a close third in the Group 3 Solario Stakes at Sandown recently, indicating he should be capable of better still, and he is the selection ahead of the Acomb runner-up Gentle Hurricane.[Ben Hutton]
