Verdict

LION'S PRIDE is very smart on his day and shouldn't lack for sharpness following a stint in the Middle East this winter. He's narrowly preferred to Pride Of Arras, who has to be feared with sights lowered on return, while 2021 winner Al Aasy should again give his running on seasonal reappearance.

  1. LION'S PRIDE
  2. PRIDE OF ARRAS (IRE)
  3. AL AASY (IRE)
