Verdict

None of these can be ruled out but sole 3-y-o MANY MEN looks the way to go with this first attempt at 2m promising to suit this largely progressive son of Study Of Man. In-form pair Contacto and BlindedbythelightS could emerge as the main dangers in that order with past winner Blazeon Five also in the picture.
