Verdict

Despite the small field this should be run at a decent pace with Icart Point and Kreb’s Cycle likely to go forward with the former of that duo looking to complete a hat-trick and having a good chance of doing so if he were to get free on the lead. The Last Emperor also appeared to enjoy being positively ridden last time and he could add to the pace in the race and all of that will help MR MINERALS back on a track that should suit better. He was a little unfortunate last time and this stiffer finish and likely strong pace produces an ideal scenario for him off a good mark. Employer is unexposed and flagged as the main danger especially as first-time blinkers could bring about more progress.
  1. Mr Minerals
  2. Employer
  3. Icart Point
