Verdict

The finale can go the way of LE DESTRIER who looked unlucky not to finish second in the Saval Beg on return from a lengthy absence, his first run for yard which has won this race 3 times in the last 5 years. French Master was successful at this meeting in 2025 so isn't taken lightly, while Maxi King is also considered with more still to offer as a stayer.

  1. LE DESTRIER (IRE)
