Verdict

CATUABA hails from a stable that is beginning to hit form and, having shaped better than the distance beaten suggests on his recent return at Southwell, he's put forward as the answer, especially as he remains unexposed at staying trips. Royal Lake ended his time with Oliver Sherwood in good nick and is respected setting out for a new stable, with Fortunate Fred likely to be thereabouts again.
