        Verdict

        Most of these are very close together on official ratings but Captain Ryan gained his fourth track victory in a similar race in August and has to be on the shortlist. KYLLUKEY was in fine form earlier this year, culminating with a victory at Chelmsford. He reappeared with a very good run here last month and gets the nod despite Dubai Paradise finishing just in front of him in the latter event as John Butler's filly had been running throughout the autumn. The three-year-old Boot Scootin Baby ran her best race to date on Tapeta at Newcastle on New Year's Eve and won't need much more to get into contention.
