Forecasts

Go Bears Go (5/4), Wings Of War (5/2), Ehraz (10/3), Hierarchy (17/2), Space Cowboy (14/1)

Verdict

GO BEARS GO is the clear form pick and he should be tuned up for this return, so he gets the nod ahead of Hierarchy, who wasn't far behind him at the Breeders' Cup. Ehraz is still unexposed and promises to benefit from a return to 6f, so he's another one to consider in a fascinating Group 3.

  2. HIERARCHY (IRE)
  3. EHRAZ
