Verdict

Hesivorthedriver, Vanquisher and Propaganda are the three to look at, with Hesivorthedriver taken to score. Propaganda cost almost half a million pounds as a yearling but has failed to justify that price tag to date. He showed promise at Newbury first time out, but that form has not worked out, and he was a disappointment last time at Lingfield. Both those runs came on the soft ground his breeding suggests he needs, and it remains to be seen if this faster surface can evoke an improvement. Vanquisher has run some decent races but has often failed to oblige when looking to hold a leading chance on the form book. His defeat at odds on last time was the third time he has been a beaten favourite, and he is taken on here. Hesiverthedriver has shown ability in all three starts and the Amanda Perrett yard is now coming back into form after a long quiet spell. His sixth over the course and distance last time has worked out well with anumber of runners from the race running well since. Hesivorthedriver can steer a path to success here.
