Verdict

This looks wide open, and with that in mind a chance is taken on IDYLLIC who has been in better heart than recent form figures would suggest and she's lurking on a handy mark if putting it all together. Gemini Man is proving consistent and merits respect along with top weight Alpine Sierra. West Sleekburn Lad completes the shortlist.

  1. IDYLLIC
  2. GEMINI MAN (IRE)
  3. ALPINE SIERRA (IRE)
