Verdict

It was hard not be impressed by the way ENEMY sliced through his field to hack up in a valuable big-field handicap at Musselburgh over Easter and he might be worth siding with to strike while the iron's hot and take the step up to pattern level in his stride, partiuclarly as it's hard to be certain what sort of form standard setters Princess Zoe and Tashkhan arrive in. Wordsworth could have more to come now stepping up to 2m and is also respected.

  1. ENEMY
  2. PRINCESS ZOE (GER)
  3. TASHKHAN (IRE)
