Verdict

Ascot's loss is undoubtedly Newcastle's gain with a humdinger of a Sagaro Stakes in store on what has been a landmark week for Gosforth Park. 2018 Northumberland Plate hero WITHHOLD sports first-time blinkers as he seeks to dominate (front runs) a field which features a Melbourne Cup second (Prince of Arran), a St.Leger third (Nayef Road), a German St.Leger winner (Ispolini), a September Stakes winner (Royal Line) and the five-timer seeking Rainbow Dreamer who remains unbeaten on an artificial surface. Although Roger Charlton's charge has endured a few setbacks since that imperious Northumberland Plate success his pure ability isn't at all in doubt.
  1. Withhold
  2. Mildenberger
  3. Ispolini
