Racing Post verdict
Third-partyJasko Des Dames heads this Kilbeggan field on a rating that sits eight pounds clear of the next-best Intense Approach, and the selection's profile over a stamina-sapping twenty furlongs on good ground makes a compelling case for a bold showing. Intense Approach, Ma Jacks Hill, and Rexem are the dangers most likely to test him, though each of the trio is at least eight pounds adrift of our selection. Jasko Des Dames is taken to translate that advantage into a decisive performance on the day. **Selection: Jasko Des Dames**
