Verdict

A red-hot renewal of this marathon stayers' contest and there's a host in with live chances. ECHO may be the one to keep on side given that he's unexposed at this sort of trip and has less miles on the clock than most in here. Sassie hacked up at Kempton last time and while she was gifted an easy lead that day, there's no doubting she's in fine form. Michael's Mount is another with a live chance after a solid effort in the Chester Plate last time out.
  1. Echo
  2. Sassie
  3. Michael's Mount
