Racing Post verdict
Third-partyMasaban has been moving forward steadily, putting up a big winning display two starts ago and then running on with purpose despite being denied a clear run last time; back on a sound surface, effective at 7-8f, and the assessor's mark still looks within range. Ravishing Beauty arrives on the back of a recent win and with her trainer in form, though a revised mark is a test, while Mount King has a top handler in his corner. Masaban is our selection.
