Verdict

All bar one are newcomers, and the market should tell a tale, but MATLOOB cost 6 figures as a yearling and is bred to be very sharp, so he gets the nod as things stand. Elite Status has a similar profile, an even more expensive yearling and pedigree all speed. Battaah went off at pretty short odds on debut and shaped quite well, so he's much respected.
