Verdict

A number arrive with claims, including Michael Dods' A BOY NAMED IVY. A winner on return at Redcar last spring, he produced a host of solid efforts in defeat thereafter and, having fallen back to his last winning mark, it would come as no surprise to see him primed for another big run. Empirestateofmind progressed nicely in handicaps last term and is feared. General Lee and Mostawaa complete the shortlist.

  3. GENERAL LEE (IRE)
