Verdict

A tightly-knit Group 3 on Timeform ratings with GLADIUS just about the most persuasive option as he's the one open to most progress after just 5 career starts. Fellow 3-y-o Damysus is in top hands and his limit may not have been reached, while Liberty Lane will be bang there if near the level he was displaying at this venue a year ago (second in this race).

  1. GLADIUS (IRE)
  2. DAMYSUS
  3. LIBERTY LANE (IRE)
