      Verdict

      The Prince comes out well clear of these on official ratings and holds a leading chance ahead of Arpeggio, Yenaled and Olivia Rose. Repetition of the selection's Galway win - admittedly on yielding going - in August would suffice here and he looks the one to beat. Arpeggio is an eight-time winner and should certainly bag some place money, as could Yenaled, even though his best recent form is on the all-weather. Olivia Rose is another to consider. She hasn't won since June of last year but has been knocking on the door on a few occasions this term. Overall, though, The Prince looks the one to beat.
