Verdict

UNLEASH THE BEAST has been crying out for an increased emphasis on stamina and getting that here for his in-form yard, he looks the one to be with. Drop Kick and Top Flight Century are in-form rivals expected to offer most resistance.

  1. UNLEASH THE BEAST (IRE)
  2. DROP KICK (IRE)
  3. TOP FLIGHT CENTURY (FR)
