Verdict

It's hard to make a compelling case for DAKOTA GOLD on this season's exploits but easing underfoot conditions will be right up his street and he is the class act in the field if he can get back to his peak form. Hurricane Ivor won a Group 3 last time so demands respect, while Minzaal adds intrigue to the race on belated reappearance.

  1. DAKOTA GOLD
