Verdict

Having finished placed in both the Irish Derby and St Leger last season, SUNWAY was best forgiven his final start on account of his wide draw when midfield in the Arc at Longchamp in October. He earns the vote to make a successful reappearance ahead of Ancient Wisdom who himself could well have more to offer as a 4-y-o. Bellum Justum may emerge best of the remainder.

  1. SUNWAY (FR)
  2. ANCIENT WISDOM (FR)
  3. BELLUM JUSTUM (IRE)
