Brave Rebellion is imposible to oppose in the finale with Namroud and Sea Senor rating the main dangers. The selection won well last time out when beating Lord Collingwood and although having a penalty for that win he looks progressive and he is taken to win again under conditions that suit. Namroud rates the main danger on his latest fourth behind Astrador but he will be handicaped after this run and that is were his future may lie. Sea Senor is another that could go well on his best form but he has looked a weak finisher in the past and he is taken on with this in mind. Of the remainder Georgedoubleyou is from a yard in form and could go well at a price but his overall profile leaves him with plenty to find and for the winner we return to Brave Rebellion.
