Twelve of the last 13 winners have been aged three or four but it’s the only one outside of that age group in Ormonde Stakes winner
MORANDO who fits the bill for this Group 3 with no fears about the ground for him after he ran a creditable race at Newbury last time in the Geoffrey Freer Stakes.
Sextant was back in fourth on that day and although he has bounced back with a Chester win since the ground does leave a question mark.
Faylaq has improved as a rate of knots and serves a crack at this sphere as does
Vivid Diamond although he may well be the slightly under the radar
Raakib Alhawa than provides the main danger from the Classic generation; he still has scope to progress.
