Verdict
Inkerman is still a maiden but has certainly shown enough to suggest he can win a race like this. Clubland won at Southwell in April but then disappointed at Nottingham and has struggled to stay this far in the past. Illustrious Prince has the past form to figure, however, and Darnathean is back over his best trip. The three-year-old RANGI CHASE has been slow to come to hand this term but looks well treated on his form in the autumn and should have the pace for this.
