7/2

Smart gelding who has proved as good as ever in defeat this term, runner-up in a C&D handicap prior to a good third in Group 3 Winter Hill Stakes (10f) 12 days ago. Sound claims again.

Sinjaari¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: R L Moore| T: H & R Charlton| OR: 107| D

11/8

Last year's John Smith's Cup winner for William Haggas who ran a cracking race and looked unlucky not to win when second for new yard at York (10.2f) in August. Big shout.

Form: 1022-42

(3)

Secret Protector³³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: W Buick| T: C Appleby| OR: 107| D

11/8

War Front colt who ran well to finish third behind Mohaafeth in Hampton Court Stakes (10f) and unlucky not to finish closer than fifth in Saratoga Derby (9.5f) since. Stiffer test may suit ideally.

Form: 1-12235

Forecasts

Sinjaari (11/8), Secret Protector (11/8), Harrovian (7/2)

This could well get tactical but SINJAARI ran right up to his best and left the impression he was unlucky not to win on yard debut/return at York (10.2f) in August, denied a run 2f out but finishing best. He can confirm the promise of that run with victory here. Harrovian is narrowly preferred to Secret Protector for second.
