Verdict

A highly-competitive handicap with the tentative vote going to NUVOLARI. He took a step forward at Goodwood 2 weeks ago, despite having a less-than-ideal position, and looks interesting back at the scene of his debut success, especially now taking on his elders for the first time. Saleymm proved better than ever when runner-up at Newmarket recently and has strong claims if reproducing that form, while Top Secret and Orbaan are others to take seriously.

  1. NUVOLARI
  2. SALEYMM (IRE)
  3. TOP SECRET
