Nicky Henderson may hold the key to this race having won five of the last 10 renewals and given that NEW MOON is the stables first-string on jockey bookings, he looks like the one to beat with an eye-catching pedigree. Stablemate Igor is respected while Sebastopol and Lomachenko both represent yards in form who do well in this sphere.
