Over the last 10 years or so this has been the Group 1 at Royal Ascot that has attracted the biggest international challenge, sprinters regularly coming over from such as Australia, Hong Kong and the US, but this time around there was none of that, the French-trained American Devil the only one in the field from outside Britain and Ireland, whilst the home challenge itself was made up of a different crop to last year, Lethal Force and Society Rock, who were first and second 12 months ago, both having been retired to stud; nevertheless, it could prove to be a strong renewal, the winner having done little but improve since a mid-field finish here in 2013, and so many of the next wave of finishers are unexposed sprinters; they spread across the track, with five of them more towards the centre and the rest far side, the bigger group, led by Astaire, setting a strong gallop, ultimately helping those coming from further back, and Slade Power did extremely well considering he pressed the pace from the outset.
