Verdict

The big 3-y-o sprint handicap at York last month looks the key piece of form here, with the highly progressive THUNDER CALL taken to confirm his superiority over Red Spells Danger, who hasn't looked back since dropping to 6f. Sea Cookie scored in good style over C&D last month and is also shortlisted along with Palace of Holyroodhouse fifth Starmade.

  1. THUNDER CALL
  2. RED SPELLS DANGER (IRE)
  3. PILU (IRE)
