Verdict

This looks wide open and the narrow vote is given to KING ROBERT, who has scope for better on the surface. A C&D winner in February, he's already displayed he can complete off this sort of rating and with first-time cheekpieces on can get back on the winning trail having run some pleasing race on turf this summer. Multiple C&D scorer Go Far joins the likes of Seeking Magic, Gulliver and Hakam in holding solid claims while Poet's Society boasts excellent credentials on the AW and may rebound from a poor effort last month heavy going at Haydock.
  1. King Robert
  2. Seeking Magic
  3. Poet's Society
