Verdict

While DO IT FOR THY SEN's handful of appearances during the winter didn't amount to much, this is the time of year that he tends to show his best. Indeed, all 3 of his previous wins under Rules (and his maiden point success) were gained during the month of May and he is very appealing off this reduced mark with conditions in his favour. Forget You Not is second choice but Miltiades could also have a major say if backing up his soft-ground chase debut third at Stratford on this faster surface.

  1. DO IT FOR THY SEN (IRE)
  2. FORGET YOU NOT (FR)
  3. MILTIADES (IRE)
