Verdict

As trappy a selling hurdle as you could wish to find, and cases can be made for plenty. The market will be as good a guide as any, particularly to the chances of the likes of Aaryam, Definite Ridge and The Kid but preference at this stage is for ROSE TREE, who may yet find a bit of improvement for a change of yard and ran as if there was more to come last time. Top weight Beau Phil and Taste The Wine are a bit more reliable than most and should go well. Scorpion Star has plenty of risk with him but he could be capable of bouncing back too.
