Thrived last season, winning Group 3s at York and Newbury. Hard to make a strong case for having been tailed off in Ormonde Stakes at Chester on return, though.

Won pair of Group 3s over this trip last summer and was back on track when a respectable third in Gordon Richards Stakes over C&D last time. He's dangerous if allowed another soft lead.

7/2
Smart, albeit quirky performer who shaped well when a narrow second in a Chester handicap on but regularly lacks the conviction to get his head in front.

Has long since looked a classy type and, having landed a listed event at Lingfield in December, he returned with a pleasing second of 4 in Huxley Stakes at Chester. Should take the beating.

Forecasts

Sangarius (1/1), Extra Elusive (9/4), Fox Tal (7/2), Oriental Mystique (10/1), Euchen Glen (20/1)

Verdict

SANGARIUS is the marginal form pick and, provided his chief rival Extra Elusive isn't allowed too much of an easy time of it up front, he should be able to score at this level for the second time before a possible step back up in grade. Fox Tal is also a player if he applies himself.

  1. SANGARIUS
  2. EXTRA ELUSIVE
  3. FOX TAL
