Verdict

It's hard to ignore the claims of THREAT who has shown stacks of ability in each of his three runs to date and the form of his Group 2 placed efforts sets a clear standard for his rivals to aim at here. Malotru won in good style in Italy last time out and he should have more to offer on just his third career start. Summer Sands is another each-way player having shaped like this step up in trip will suit.
