Verdict

ARNARSON sets a solid standard on form and he may not need to improve on his recent third if he's to take a hand here. Leader's Legacy was well beaten on debut but he looked like he'd come on for that run. He cost plenty as a yearling so there should be more to come and trainer and jockey must be respected, particularly in current form. Bahar put up a respectable performance last time when maybe going off a little too quick and he should go well for another trainer/jockey combination in flying form.
  1. Arnarson
  2. Leader's Legacy
  3. Bahar
