Verdict

It's been a while since COUNT D'ORSAY last got his head in front but this is a lower-grade handicap than those he is used to contesting, and there were positives to take from his latest effort at Beverley. He gets the nod ahead of Fortamour, who likes it here and looks dangerous on the back of an encouraging effort last time. Twelfth Knight is best of the rest.

  1. COUNT D'ORSAY (IRE)
  2. FORTAMOUR (IRE)
  3. TWELFTH KNIGHT (IRE)
