DRAGON SYMBOL, although demoted in the Commonwealth Cup, underlined his capabilites at this level, and there have been no signs of a chink in his armour yet, so he gets the marginal vote. Last season’s winner, Oxted, is another obvious danger, while both Starman and Rohaan have similar profiles to the selection in that they arrive firmly on the up, so they warrant a favourable mention, too.
