In depth

Verdict

It could pay to stick with POWER OF STATES as he bids for a hat-trick of course and distance wins. He’s raised a further 6lb but was a comfortable winner last time and there looks more to come. Arij has returned a beaten favourite on his last three outings now and gets a change of headgear including a tongue-tie while Yuften is back on a winning mark and drops down a grade. Kattani and Inclyne should appreciate the return to this shorter trip and are preferred to Catch My Breath
