Verdict

Banditry is racing well this campaign and it would be no surprise to see him get a deserved success. Narrow preference is for THISTIMENEXTYEAR with a fast run race at this trip likely to prove ideal following a stylish win. Shabbah is also respected following an easy success while Petrus is consistent and won't be far away. Aquarium got no run last time in top handicap company and is taken to return to his previous form.
