Racing Post verdict

Third-party

Way Maker tops our figures and sets the standard: a dual bumper winner who took the step up to this sort of trip in his stride when second last time, he meets this field on terms our ratings favour. Flying Ace, a progressive type conceding weight all round, is the chief danger, with Jetbob interesting on his hurdling bow for new connections. Way Maker is the selection.

Racing Post pick: Way Maker
