Verdict

Plenty in with a chance but the vote goes to DIDTHEYLEAVEUOUTTO. A useful performer over timber, Nick Gifford's charge has returned to action with a couple of solid third-placed efforts and, now upped to 2¼m for the first time on the Flat, he's fancied to go very close. Twilight Prince possesses a lot more stamina than might have been expected so he's second choice, while recent course winner Overhaugh Street and Yasmin From York also merit consideration.

  1. DIDTHEYLEAVEUOUTTO (IRE)
  2. TWILIGHT PRINCE
  3. OVERHAUGH STREET
