Verdict

LILKIAN is drawn better than on his last visit to this track and makes plenty of appeal under a 5 lb penalty in a contest where few arrive at the peak of their powers. Masterclass bounced back to form in a Kempton claimer last time and would rate as the biggest threat if able to back that up, with Confederation narrowly preferred to complete the placings.
