Verdict

POWERFUL RESPONSE shaped like a horse still ahead of his mark when runner-up at Doncaster 3 weeks ago, idling and reeled in late on. He earns the vote to come out on top with any forecast rain likely to aid his cause back at 7f. Low-mileage Glory Sky and Highfield Viking are others to consider, with Destined also in the mix.

  1. POWERFUL RESPONSE (IRE)
  2. GLORY SKY (IRE)
  3. HIGHFIELD VIKING
