Racing Post verdict
Third-partyThis is difficult to assess at this early stage of the season, but Minella Rockett is the most credible contender, bringing the highest Flat rating in the field from a yard with a strong record of preparing debutants for this discipline. Boston Benjamin, the only runner who has been successful on the Flat, faces a significant stamina test over this longer trip and wears a hood, while Nicky Larson, placed over a mile and by Galiway — a sire associated with smart hurdlers — is another to track in the market. Minella Rockett is our selection.
