      Verdict

      David O’Meara can get one ready at home and enjoys plenty of success on this track so it wouldn't surprise to see a big run from Kingdom Brunel, who is a full brother to top-class miler Amazing Maria. But this still looks a straightforward task for MAJOR PARTNERSHIP as the Godolphin colt followed up a promising run behind a decent sort at Kempton with a comfortable victory at Newmarket and he should enjoy the extra furlong. Thiobraid Arann kept on into second in a small race at Hamilton but will need more to figure here. Billy Ruskin is a half-brother to miler Warfare but will find easier opportunities than this.
