Racing Post verdict
Third-partyLOPEO's placed efforts read well given how that form has since worked out, and he backed it up with another solid run last time, giving him strong claims to confirm that promise here. ARC OLE OLE, who had posted a hat-trick beforehand, ran on well from off the pace last time on a track that made things hard for hold-up horses, and rates the biggest threat now this longer trip should suit. HEROICS also strengthens his claims, doing no more than needed in front when stepped up in trip last time, while MAGNETUDE cannot be ignored either on our figures. On the balance of form, LOPEO gets the vote as our selection.
