Verdict

Both Super Julius and Gorgeous Noora arrive as fairly unexposed three-year-old's, and promise to attract plenty of interest in the market. However, there are a number of proven AW performers with equally alluring claims who offer more value. Menelik has place claims on the back of a respectable run at Dundalk, and solid between 5f and 7f, should never be ignored at this track. Dynamo Walt is another who will win his fair share of races during the AW championships, and should be putting in strong late work on his return to action from just 1lb above his last winning mark, but a strong preference is for the David O'Meara trained ALEEF. This colt has slipped to a most attractive mark despite a relatively light campaign in 2017, and the booking of James Doyle catches the eye.
  1. Aleef
  2. Dynamo Walt
  3. Gorgeous Noora
