Racing Post verdict
Third-partyJohn La Bear is preferred to the head of our ratings on a progressive profile, having won two starts back off the back of a pair of fourths, with only a below-par effort last time out against him. He has run over today's distance and going, which counts in his favour. Connova, Aquilla Star and Divine Believer are the chief dangers, with Connova the pick of them on figures. It's a selection with medium confidence in a competitive 13-runner field.
