Verdict

Not easy to solve. With a few of these best coming from just off the pace, it could be that CAPTAIN FELIX might get an easy lead on the front. He can be a bit free, but it doesn't seem to stop him and if his pilot can keep a bit for the closing stages, he might be hard to pass. Parthenius looks an obvious danger from a yard that's been firing all summer, and Mirsaale has such a good record here that he too has to be considered, despite giving chunks of weight away.
  1. Captain Felix
  2. Parthenius
  3. Mirsaale
