Verdict

MILITARY ORDER is bred to be classy and, having doubled his tally in ready fashion at Newbury recently, he gets the nod ahead of the progressive Circle of Fire, who has actually achieved a bit more in form terms than the selection. Inquiring Minds is an intriguing runner and there's a case to be made for a few others.

  1. MILITARY ORDER (IRE)
  2. CIRCLE OF FIRE
  3. INQUIRING MINDS
