Verdict

2019 winner CHIDSWELL is probably in better form than his form figures suggest and this may have been the target for the veteran. A big run could be forthcoming if he can keep the mistakes down and he gets the vote over Canelo and Special Prep.

  1. CHIDSWELL (IRE)
  2. CANELO (IRE)
  3. SPECIAL PREP (IRE)
