Forecasts

Palace Pier (4/11), Khuzaam (4/1), Happy Power (8/1), Bless Him (28/1)

Verdict

PALACE PIER quickly progressed into a top-class miler last season, winning Group 1s at Royal Ascot and in France, and is taken to outclass his 3 rivals on return. Khuzaam still has to prove he's as effective on turf but is progressive and race-fit, so is taken to follow the selection home.

  1. PALACE PIER
  2. KHUZAAM (USA)
  3. HAPPY POWER (IRE)
