Verdict
HANSEATIC is related to four winners, including the useful Group 3 winner Stronghold. John Gosden's colt is preferred to fellow newcomers El Calafate and Morinda and this won't take much winning. Stormbound has gone backwards since a fifth at Kempton in May and Shawka has the better recent form with an improved effort at Sandown in August. Made Of More is making steady progress but was still beaten over seven lengths when third at Newmarket and Spark Of Genius was also beaten a long way when placed at Kempton last time.
