Verdict

The betting can be a useful guide in races of this nature as most of these are capable of holding their own at this level and it's simply a cse of catching them on the right day. Previous winners: Bilash and Captain Scooby are prime examples of this and both are likely to be popular if nostalgia is factored in. However, HAMISH MCGONAGAIN seems to have been revaitalised by his recent switch in yards and will be a potent threat if he can step things up a notch. Kings Academy has a similar profile and is also respected, while Ambitious Icarus is an admirable campaigner that can be relied upon to give his all once more.
