Racing Post verdict

Third-party

Arcland, our selection, shares the top rating with Tuche De Houelle at Killarney over 20f, but the case for preferring him rests on a more solid book of form, a progressive profile, and proven form under today's conditions. Tuche De Houelle, Market Ready and Kazakh d'Arthel are the chief dangers, all rated within a handful of pounds. Confidence in the pick is high, with Arcland the type to make the most of the profile on offer in this ten-runner field.

Racing Post pick: Arcland
