Verdict

In what looks like a very hot renewal of this race, Limato brings the best form to the contest. There are however major doubts about the ground and his very best efforts have come over 6f. HOME OF THE BRAVE could be hard to peg back and there's not a whole lot of pace in the race; he could be Godolphin's best chance of landing back-to-back renewals of the race. Librisa Breeze was impressive last time and the step back up in trip could see him improve a little further while Spirit Of Valor looks progressive and is a player if not inconvenienced by the softer conditions. Suedois could run well at bigger odds if he returns to the form of last season.
  1. Home Of The Brave
  2. Librisa Breeze
  3. Spirit of Valor
