Verdict

Garrus has won three times at Group 3 level, including the Abernant at Newmarket last month. Art Power had Ano Syra behind when winning a Group 3 here last September but he’s not reproduced that form since and weakened quickly on his reappearance at York. Big Gossey has twice finished behind MOSS TUCKER this season and Ken Condon’s gelding is almost guaranteed to run his race again, which is more than you can say about the majority of his rivals, though Twilight Jet is eased in grade.
