Verdict

Cases can be made for the majority of horses in this small but select field, but the progressive CARDANO is the preference to continue his fine run of form. His short-head verdict didn't reflect the manner of his victory over his rivals over C&D and his experience could give him an advantage over some unexposed rivals. Qarasu was eye-catching when dispatching modest rivals at Windsor on his latest start and warrants respect, but maybe one for the future while Ironclad could run a respectable race off a very lenient mark compared to others in the race.
