Verdict

YIMOU is open to a little more improvement and will be hard to peg back in his bid to land his third successive win in what will be only his fifth race in a handicap. He is the suggestion in slender preference to Tin Hat, who is a tough campaigner who can help ensure the pace is a strong one; he has a likelable attitude and merits serious consideration. Baby Steps is also holding his form and is only 4lb higher than his win on the AW last month. Iconic Knight and Swiss Knight are others to monitor in the betting.
