Verdict

CATCH YOURSELF ON is related to numerous winners and should have enough speed for this discipline, so he's capable of making a winning start at the possible expense of point-recruit Martin Plage. Several of the others are closely matched on form but Jackson Lamb is open to improvement, so he's another one to consider.

  1. CATCH YOURSELF ON (USA)
  2. MARTIN PLAGE (FR)
  3. JACKSON LAMB (IRE)
