Verdict

Virtually all of these have claims to an ultra-competitive sprint and to some degree the run of the race will likely determine the outcome. Classy STAKE ACCLAIM is versatile tactically and he looks the safest bet under AW maestro Adam Kirby after running well at Lingfield last time. Junior Brutus flashed terrific speed over 6f latest and perhaps a return to 5f can help him regain the winning thread; he was a classy two-year-old. The emphatic C&D win of Lomu latest means he mustn't be ignored either despite a 8lb hike.
  1. Stake Acclaim
