Verdict

GLEN SHIEL enjoyed a fine 2020, winning five times with his year culimnating in success in Group 1 company on Champions Day at Ascot in the autumn. He gets the nod to concede weight all round and come out on top on return. Last year's winner Speak In Colours, Royal Commando and Sonaiyla are a trio of others fancied to be in the mix.

  1. GLEN SHIEL
  2. SPEAK IN COLOURS
  3. ROYAL COMMANDO (IRE)
