Verdict

The reappearance of Starchitect here is of plenty of interest. David Pipe's second season chaser may be capable of more this season given his comparably high hurdle rating but giving weight away to in form rivals first time out could prove difficult. Therefore THE GEEGEEZ GEEGEE is taken to win again. He couldn't have been much more impressive last time and looks capable of more now seemingly transformed by new yard. Also in fine form is Oliver's Hill and he too rated a leading contender.
  1. The Geegeez Geegee
  2. Starchitect
  3. Oliver's Hill
