Racing Post verdict
Third-partyThis looks a red-hot sprint, but RUMSTAR, our selection, gets the vote as last year's winner who confirmed he retains all his ability when a good second on his reappearance; he found the very top level too sharp for him last time but that form has no bearing on today's easier task, and the minimum trip and decent ground both suit. Words Of Truth, unbeaten in three of his last five starts and fresh from a taking Listed success at this course, rates the biggest danger and remains open to more improvement, while Asfoora, a multiple Group 1 winner who shaped better at the top level last time, and Shagraan, already a dual Listed scorer, both add plenty of depth. It's a desperately competitive heat, but RUMSTAR's proven level at this class and trip earns him the vote.
