Verdict

ADDEYBB looks highly progressive and can take this step up in his stride after winning a Group 2 in fine fashion at Sandown last time. Rhododendron is a classy filly who placed in two Classics last year and she's an interesting runner if she copes with the drop back in trip. Suedois could be the each-way angle in to the race with the way he finished last season, though he will need a good pace to aim at.
