Verdict

An ultra-competitive opener and it may pay to take a chance on DEMBE. Having suggested he's coming to the boil in recent starts, he returns to the scene of his last success (in the Middle Distance Handicap on AW Finals day in 2022) lurking on a very handy mark and could be the way to go. Inspiritus and Arcadian Nights head up the dangers, with low-mileage Bystander another worth a look stepping up in trip.
