Verdict

Captain Ryan has recorded all five of his wins on Turf at this venue though none of them came in soft going. But AMBITIOUS ICARUS handles the underfoot conditions and returns to this surface after a couple of placed efforts on the all-weather. He may prove good enough with Concur struggling after landing a double during the summer and Perfect Pastime out of form. Delahay is the least exposed and could finish closer.
