    Verdict

    Curtain Call is preferred to Bold Choice and Drill Sergeant. A winner of the Beresford Stakes when trained by Jessica Harrington, he handles today's surface perfectly well and if anywhere near fit, should take the beating. Bold Choice probably beat trees when successful here earlier in the month. He is worth chancing at this level and can take advantage were there to be any chinks in the armour of the market leader. Drill Sergeant is related to winners over further. Unproven on the surface, his stamina could come into play if this develops into a slog. Woolfall Treasure was pitched in at high levels as a juvenile without too much success and looks difficult to fancy. Curtain Call looks difficult to oppose and we seek not to.
