In depth

Verdict

ARCHAEOLOGY has impressed on both starts for his new yard since leaving Johnny Murtagh in Ireland and looks the sort to improve further. He does get the vote but confidence is tempered quite considerably by the fact that he has plenty of weight on ground he's yet to encounter. Reggae Runner has been quite well beaten the last twice but it would be no surprise to see the Johnston inmate bounce right back now down in grade. Ramesses is highly consistent as he's yet to finish out of the first four in five career starts but this rates a tricky contest as none of the contenders have yet to race on testing ground and caution is advised.
