Verdict

There is a real chance that THE GREAT WALL could be a long way ahead of his mark here on this surface at least and although he beat very little last time out and this is tougher it was hard not to like the way he won and the alacrity that he showed on Fibresand. Captain Lars looks to face a tough task giving weight all around here but this trip should suit him far better than the 5f he tried last time. Both Bold Spirit and Zaeem have found their form on this surface of late but this is harder than their recent task and Lady Perignon might not have much in hand off this mark despite having shown she can handle this surface.
  1. The Great Wall
  2. Bold Spirit
  3. Captain Lars
