IL VA DE SOI ended 2023/24 on the up and caught the eye with how fluently he travelled at Sandown on his second run back this season, only beaten by a progressive type, so he is taken to resume winning ways. He can see off the challenge of Hardy du Seuil, who is respected back down in grade, with Bertie's Ballet completing the shortlist.
