Verdict

With Malakand only plating class, there are only two to consider here. Royal Emperor has looked a different horse this year, since stepping up in trip, but he looks to face an impossible task trying to give weight to Tees Components. Mary Reveley's imposing individual, ended up a useful handicapper on the flat this term, having shown plenty of ability in bumpers, where after losing out in a photo with Southern Star on his debut, he remained unbeaten in four subsequent starts. He has the potential to go to the top over hurdles and shouldn't be off the bridle in this.
