MILITARY ORDER's debut form is strong and he made no mistake at the second attempt, readily off the mark at Newmarket 6 months ago. This longer trip will suit and this brother to Adayar is likely to thrive as a 3yo, so he gets the nod in this fascinating contest. Debut-winner Chesspiece is feared and Exoplanet remains with potential back down in grade.
