Racing Post verdict
Third-partyCommanche Falls holds a clear advantage at the head of the ratings here, sitting 13 lb clear of the next-rated pair, and over six furlongs at Ripon that level of superiority gives him a sound platform to dictate terms. Dark Cloud Rising and Saint Lawrence both rate as the chief dangers on identical figures, while Rousing Encore cannot be entirely dismissed if the selection fails to fire. Provided Commanche Falls reproduces his best, the class edge should just about tell. **Selection: Commanche Falls**
