Mondul, Adopted Hero and Pilgrims Progress look the main protagonists in this contest and we will side with the unbeaten Mondul. The gelding from the Martin Harris yard won well last time out when defeating Zimbabwe and he is taken to score again with conditions in his favour. Adopted Hero is worth noting in the market as he is from a shrewd yard and was a fair sort on the flat but he may come on for the experience. Pilgrims Progress is game and consistent and is another that could go well he was affair third behind Trouble At Bay in a hot race last time and is another that should improve. Of the remainder A Toi A Moi showed form in his native country but may come on for the experience so we are happy to side with the more experienced Mondul.
