This is a tight handicap in which a case can be made for most.
TAKATUL was a first time out winner last season and is taken to repeat on a surface which he is bred to relish. He beat a subsequent dual winner at Yarmouth in July and is not harshly treated judged on that effort.
Suqoor has won two of his four starts over this trip. He has faced some stiff tasks over the past year but there have been signs recently that he would be winning again soon.
Take The Helm remains on a good mark despite attracting the attention of the handicapper. His second to Qaffaal is a strong piece of form and he should go close again over a trip which will suit him better.
Gothic Empire,
Viscount Barfield and
War Glory all have solid claims but would need to produce career bests, first time out, to take this.
