Probably one of the toughest handicaps of the week on the Knavesmire with masses to consider and fine margins in form-lines plentiful. Firmament has a strong race record and looks to be the obvious leading light from the David O'Meara yard (and from an increasingly competitive handicap mark). Reach High is unexposed for Saeed Bin Suroor, so any market confidence could prove worth following whilst the likes of Seniority, Original Choice and Afaak all bring rock-solid Class 2 handicap form into the race. However, HORS DE COMBAT has also performed well in top handicaps all summer and certain to be finishing off strongly represents clear each-way value.
