Verdict

Brando is clear on official ratings and clearly has the best form in the book but there's a chance he won't be quite as effective on faster ground so a chance is taken on TASLEET who is proven at Group 3 level and looks capable of bouncing back this campaign after a quiet 2016. Kassia and Windfast make up the shortlist; the former was a revelation returned to this trip after a sustained spell over further while the latter looks progressive and has C&D for in the book.
