Verdict
Taj Alola could only only manage fourth carrying a penalty at Windsor last time and OUTSMART is preferred. The latter finished clear of the rest when second at Newcastle to Manhattanville, who has subsequently won again, and Ollie Pears’ grey can go one better. Agilulf finished behind the selection earlier but posted a better effort at Nottingham last time while Jubilee Road and stablemate Marquis Of York step up in trip with the latter preferred.
