    Verdict

    Sanbuch is a typical Cumani improver and gets the vote ahead of Proponent and Horseford Hill. The selection still looked a big baby when winning at Goodwood last time. He had to be rousted along in the early stages but swept through nicely late on the land the spoils. If he settles today we should see an improved performance. Proponent has taken on some top performers this season including Authorized here in the Dante. He wasn't disgraced behind the progressive Pipedreamer at Goodwood last time out and with the stable in better form he could go close. Horseford Hill is a similar type to the selection and won very gamely last time out. that was only the fourth run of his career so there should be more to come. Hat-trick chasing Tifernati looks best of the rest, but we reckon Sanbuch could be another handicap winner for Luca and this one gets our vote.
