Verdict

JUDGEMENTOFSOLOMON stands out as the one who could produce a dominant display. He's less exposed than the remainder and promises to be well suited by the step up in trip, particuarly with the emphasis on stamina on soft ground. Berkshire Sundance can get involved if tuned up and Dereham should be thereabouts.
