Racing Post verdict
Third-partySirius sits on top of our figures after a break of 261 days but returned with a win last time out, making her the most feared danger, while The Mediator and Friary Road also take their chance on solid recent form of their own. We prefer Delta, however, on a progressive profile and a fitness edge - he has a win among his last five starts and is fit from a run just 13 days ago, with prior form over today's distance and going in support - giving him the nod ahead of the top-rated one. It's a small but tricky field and confidence is low, but Delta is our selection.
