Verdict

LAW OF THE SEA caught the eye in no uncertain terms in the Chester Cup and is selected to confirm the promise of that run. Carzola is proving most progressive so warrants plenty of respect in his bid for the 4-timer despite having a 10 lb higher mark to contend with. Mountain Road ended last season on the up and merits consideration, also.
