      Verdict

      A couple of these are clear on official ratings. Private Story is one of them but he hasn't won on the Flat since his racecourse debut in 2009 and has been out of sorts over hurdles recently. The other is GORDONSVILLE and he looks to the one to beat as he showed improved form over timber last year and this won't take much winning. Veloso has done most of his winning on the all-weather and hasn't raced since 2010 while course specialist Eijaaz has plenty to find on today's terms.
