Verdict

Luca Cumani trained the winner of this race last year and DIRAKH SHAN is certainly heading in the right direction with each run. He made most last time and if coming on from his last run can take this race. Status Symbol should have plenty of stamina reserves given the pedigree and runs so far (including two in bumpers) and may prefer a longer trip. Norman Orpen was close to the winner when last seen here and the trip shouldn't be a problem whilst Spirit Of Love is unproven at the distance and is best watched. Tariq Too could be a threat to the selection as this well bred 140,000 guineas purchase looks to start repaying connections with a win over a trip which has seemed to suit given previous efforts.
