An open-looking Group 2 contest and it would not be hard to make a case for any of the nine runners. The inconsistent Cougar Mountain has the talent but is hard to trust while admirable Gordon Lord Byron should once more give his running. Dutch Connection must be a bit player back at this level and has won over C&D before while Flight Risk is another to note. Spirit of Valor posted a career-best in the Jersey at Ascot last time and with the yard in stunning form should go close but MUBTASIM could overturn the Ascot form with cheekpieces on for the first time here and with William Haggas' team also in blistering form, he looks the value call at the likely prices.
- Mubtasim
- Spirit of Valor
- Dutch Connection
