Verdict

Venetia Williams' FRERO BANBOU made very good strides last term but still starts this season on a handy-looking mark and is fancied to make a winning return. Amoola Gold landed this event back in 2020 and also possesses an excellent record fresh so rates a big threat, while C&D winner Before Midnight and in-form Gumball need shortlisting too.

  1. FRERO BANBOU (FR)
  2. AMOOLA GOLD (GER)
  3. BEFORE MIDNIGHT
