Verdict

SEE THE FIRE holds the edge on form and represents a stable that can do no wrong at present so gets the vote in a cracking Gordon Richards Stakes. Ed Walker's Almaqam could take a step forward in 2025 and rates a big threat though, along with Royal Champion, who remains unbeaten since joining Karl Burke. The returning Al Aasy completes the shortlist.
