Verdict

A typically small field doesn't make this any less intriguing, with high-class Irish 2000 Guineas winner FIELD OF GOLD the one to beat on first start as a 4-y-o. Never So Brave was much improved last season, landing his breakthrough Group 1 success over 7f, and he could be better equipped than most if the pace is steady. Zeus Olympios concedes weight to the aforementioned pair but could progress again in his bid to make it 5-5.
