Verdict

Plenty with something to prove but SHORE arrives with a low-mileage profile, having displayed fair form in a trio of AW events earlier this year and there may well be more to come now handicapping up in trip. Dammit, the returning Universal Focus, Never Mistabeat and Harvest Bow head up the dangers.

  1. SHORE (USA)
  2. DAMMIT (IRE)
  3. UNIVERSAL FOCUS (GER)
