Verdict

SACRED PATH has a pedigree which suggests that this longer trip will play to her strengths, and despite being twice a beaten favourite at Goodwood and Haydock has the strongest form on offer in this race. She represents a leading trainer in John Gosden, and there's no reason as to why she should be hindered by the switch to Polytrack, so rates as a most confident selection, with the David Simcock-trained Qayed the likeliest alternative.
