Verdict

STRONG LEADER could hardly have been more impressive when making a winning debut at Warwick back in May, quickening up superbly to draw clear in the manner of a very exciting prospect. He earns the vote to confirm the promise of that run and come out on top again. Gentle Slopes, Kayf Legend and Earth Cry are others to consider in what looks a very hot bumper.

  1. STRONG LEADER
  2. GENTLE SLOPES
