Verdict

Winner of the Group One Phoenix Stakes and Group Two Norfolk Stakes at two, SIOUX NATION has been a little disappointing this season but his close fifth in the July Cup and third just last week in the Flying Five represent two excellent pieces of form and although he has to give weight away to some good rivals with his penalty he can pass this test. Hit The Bid was right on the selections heels at the Curragh and is better off at the weights so has to be considered a big danger especially given that was just his second race of the season. Evergreen Take Cover would be a hugely popular winner and has legitimate claims to repeat his win 12 months ago.
