Verdict

Well fancied last time IRONCLAD never really got going on the roller-coaster environs of Epsom having shown himself well suited by this C&D last year off a 5lb lower mark. He’ll need to be in better form to reverse placings with Breath Caught and Data Protection but there’s every chance he will with the former of that duo looking to need further these days. Joyful Mission in the same colours as the suggestion needs to settle better before he’s of interest especially over this trip. Nicklaus enters on the back of a good effort last time but he doesn’t find winning easy and he could be booked for another place.
