Racing Post verdict

Third-party

Lord Massusus edges this on our figures at the top of a well-stacked eleven-runner field over today's nine furlongs on good to firm, seven pounds clear of Diego El Queso and Jamestown who are tied in second. Slieve Binnian and Retracement are also tied just behind that pair, keeping the form picture tight through the middle of the race. Diego El Queso, Jamestown and Slieve Binnian all look capable of turning the form around given how narrow the gaps are near the top, so this is very much a qualified pick. We're siding with Lord Massusus, but with only limited confidence given the strength of those challengers.

Racing Post pick: Lord Massusus
