Verdict

KOKTAIL DIVIN is selected to make light of a Grade 1 penalty and deny Gordon Elliott a fifth successive win in this Grade 2 contest. Jack Kennedy seemingly prefers Jacob's Ladder to Kala Conti from the Elliott pair and that 7-y-o might be the one to give Henry de Bromhead's charge most to think about.
