Verdict

There should be more to come from T'CHALLA, who pulled clear with another well-bred type when opening his account at Windsor and has been handed what looks a fair mark for this handicap debut. William Haggas has saddled the winner of this race a couple of times in recent years and his representative Global Asset is a big threat having done little wrong on each of his three starts this season. Ebt's Guard and Magnum Opus are others to consider.

  1. T'CHALLA
  2. GLOBAL ASSET (IRE)
  3. EBT'S GUARD
