Verdict

The form of the Chesham won by Battleground is open to question, and he isn't the standout the early market suggests, but he is bred to be outstanding, so is dangerous to omit from calculations. Preference, though, is for Superlative Stakes runner-up DEVIOUS COMPANY, with Youth Spirit also shortlisted having won well at Newmarket after finishing behind the selection on his racecourse bow at Haydock.
  1. Devious Company
  2. Youth Spirit
  3. Battleground
