Verdict

This could feel like a lot further than the advertised distance come racetime if the rain has come in any great measure. That will suit THE LAST BRIDGE down to the ground, as all he does is stay, and last year's winner can follow up with a hard fought success again. Alberto's Dream is the one to beat on form but this trip asks a new question of him, and Fight Commander is preferred for the runner-up spot.
