Verdict

TRUESHAN put up the sort of handicap performance that's all too rarely attempted let alone accomplished when defying a BHA mark of 120 in the Northumberland Plate at Newcastle 31 days ago, so he looks the one to be with on the back of that stunning display. Kyprios is an interesting new addition to the staying scene following his success in the Ascot Gold Cup and commands the utmost respect, while stalwart Stradivarius can't be written off for all that he's not quite the force of old.
