Verdict
A tricky affair as to who will produce their best form as we near the end of the season. Stablemates Birdman and Russian Realm are both capable but ran well below par on their latest outings while Hillbilly Boy remains 8lb higher than when winning a lower grade contest at Newmarket back in May. Ballymore Castle has not been at his best since fifth at Headquarters in July behind third-placed ACCESSION. Re-opposing on much better terms with Pastoral Player for an earlier defeat at Goodwood, Charlie Fellowes' charge may prove the one to side with in this. Cordite and Lexington Times are both struggling at present.
