Verdict

Joseph O'Brien saddled the winner of this contest last year and he looks to have another solid chance this time with BENAUD. Recent form looks thin on the ground for most of his rivals so he's fancied to notch a third career success. This drop in trip should be in Choice of Mine's favour so he's put forward as the main threat, with Final Endeavour completing the shortlist.

  1. BENAUD (IRE)
  2. CHOICE OF MINE (AUS)
  3. FINAL ENDEAVOUR (IRE)
