Racing Post verdict

Third-party

Sergei Diaghilev heads this six-runner Class 1 contest at Gowran Park on a rating that sits nine pounds clear of the nearest challengers, Sea Of Rain and Venetian Power, which represents a meaningful edge on paper over a mile on good-to-firm ground. Sea Of Rain and Venetian Power rate the principal dangers at joint second in the assessments, with Full Volume only a pound further back and completing the list of key dangers. The confidence here is modest given the compressed nature of the chasing pack and the fact that form can be tight at this level, but the gulf between our selection and the rest of the field is hard to ignore. **Sergei Diaghilev** is the selection.
