1. True Courage | Placed last start at Ascot. Capable of racing on speed and has three placings from six runs this prep. Serious player. |
2. Zuba | Successful at 1m 2f and 1m 4f on the all-weather, but last win was over three years ago; has also won a hurdle. Well beaten at 10-1 behind Southern Voyage when last of 4 on his latest flat outing at Ascot over 1m 4f (good to firm) in July last year. |
3. Genesius | Beaten easily last start at Salisbury when fresh. Capable of racing on speed. Comes to hand quickly and won at Goodwood when last second-up. Can’t dismiss. |
4. Lexington Knight | In the money last start running third at Newmarket. Capable of racing on speed. One of the main hopes. |
5. Sarsons Risk | Returns from nine week let-up and placed at Newbury on debut. Has plenty of early speed and a likely leader. Well placed. |
