Racing Post verdict
Third-partyTawaazon showed renewed spark when going close at a stiff track on his most recent outing, and this 6f looks well suited to his profile; he sits below his previous best mark and carries first-time headgear. I'm Spartacus, a course-and-distance winner, is the chief threat on his all-weather form, while Hero Of The Hour and Whatswrongnow also merit respect in an open race. Tawaazon is our selection.
