Verdict

The value angle here is KNOWWHENTORUN, who boasts some decent form and shaped well back from a break (first run since being gelded) when fourth in a big-field Goodwood handicap 12 days ago. This step up in trip looks a good move and the booking of Andrea Atzeni adds to his appeal. Titian and Eikonix both remain with some potential and they are feared most, in that order of preference.

  1. KNOWWHENTORUN
  2. TITIAN (IRE)
  3. EIKONIX
