Verdict

Andrew Balding saddled Bangkok to win this maiden in 2019 and his representative GROUNDBREAKER, who showed plenty in two starts at Kempton towards the end of last year, is very much the one to beat. Newcomers do not have a good record in this race (only one first-time-out winner since 2006), but General Idea and Almuhit both make plenty of appeal on paper, particularly the former, and rate the main dangers.

  1. GROUNDBREAKER (GER)
  2. GENERAL IDEA
  3. ALMUHIT (IRE)
