In depth

Verdict

A big field but little in the way of worthwhile form to consider. SAXON SOLDIER improved when beaten three lengths at Windsor last month and any further progress could be enough to land this. Exempt steps up in trip after showing a glimpse of promise at Newbury back in September and Meshardal can only improve on his poor debut effort at Ascot last season. Better was expected from both Arjawan and Simply Elegant last time and a bigger threat could come from the newcomer Response, who cost 135,000gns and is related a Graded winner in America.
