Verdict

SPYCATCHER sets a clear standard based on his excellent effort in the Acomb Stakes at York last summer. He failed to reproduce that level of form on his next 2 starts, but he is well worth one more chance given the dearth of credible opposition on show here. Newcomer General Sago is second choice ahead of Cooperation and Midnight Stripper.
