Racing Post verdict

Third-party

Passengerontheship arrives off four straight wins in the space of just over a month, the most recent a nine-and-a-half-length success just five days ago, and the manner of those victories suggests a 7lb penalty is unlikely to halt his progress. Settle Down Jill is an in-form rival with course and distance form, and Justicialism has been consistently placed in recent starts over hurdles and could translate that form now chasing. Passengerontheship is our selection.
