Verdict

Quite a few are clearly looking to pinch some black type as they move into Group 3 grade. Save Your Love looks the likeliest from that category but others are preferred. DRUMROLL and Mister Mister were second and third in the listed Tetrarch Stakes earlier this month and placings can be confirmed as the former was only having a second career start. Pivotal Trigger is possibly the form pick but hasn't been seen since Arc day in October when last of seven in a Group 1. He is down in grade here, however, so rates a threat to all.
