Verdict

3-y-os ISPAHAN and Zeeband easily stand out. The former shaped well in a race run in a good time at Doncaster in July and looks to have been handed a lenient opening mark judged on that, so he's narrowly preferred with this longer trip in his favour. Squelch has done little wrong this year and can fill the places.
