Verdict

PASSENGER has looked highly progressive having adopted his trainer's typical patient approach and he's fancied to take this before contesting some of the Group 1s towards the end of the season. Last year's winner Allaila is an obvious danger and King's Gambit can't be ruled out given he's also on an upward curve.
