In depth

Verdict

NOBLE PATRON completed a fast-ground double at Windsor in the summer and got no sort of run on his hat-trick bid at Haydock. He gets a chance to put matters right on his debut here. Mcmanaman, a course and distance winner in April, will be better for a couple of recent runs on Dirt here but stable companion Wrecking Crew, who ran in strong company in the USA, didn't show much on Turf. Yaalail is a consistent performer on Turf but Dubai Mirage may need another furlong and easier ground conditions.
