Verdict

An open Group 2 with CHINDIT just about the most persuasive option. He may not have kicked on as perhaps hoped following his Greenham win, but he's been set some stiff assignments and was better than the result at Goodwood last time. The return to 7f shouldn't be an issue and he can see off the Charlie-Appleby pait D'bai and Al Suhail.

  1. CHINDIT (IRE)
  2. D'BAI (IRE)
  3. AL SUHAIL
