Verdict

Intimidate made all in heavy ground over 7f at Yarmouth last October and he'll take some pegging back in today's going if allowed an easy lead. However, ANNUNCIATION has a touch of class that the others lack and he gets the nod. Third in the Two-Year-Old Trophy at Redcar last year, he'll be sharper for last week's outing at Chantilly and the Hannon colt is taken to come out best. Fortinbrass has been running well on the all-weather without success but the soft ground is a worry for both him and Threes Grand but Kimberella and Shahdaroba will handle the surface and have chances. Maiden winners Smart Spender and Heaven's Guest are a couple of less exposed types to keep an eye on this season as they return to action.
