Verdict

This could go the way of one of the lightly-raced 4-y-os, with MUJTABA taken to cast aside a disappointing display when fancied for the Lincoln, particularly with this trip expected to suit. Lord Protector hit the ground running last spring and is a big threat, with Baryshnikov another to consider.

  1. MUJTABA
