Verdict
HOME OF THE BRAVE (NAP) made a winning reapperance in this race last year. He went on to land a Group 3 at Haydock where he beat So Beloved and Hugo Palmer’s charge can confirm running in this. The latter also finished behind Tasleet at Newmarket in November when both were well beaten but the Haggas colt had won the Greenham at Chelmsford earlier in the year and could go well on his return. Donjuan Triumphant was not at his best at the All-Weather Championships when a long way behind runner-up Nimr and the latter can figure with a similar effort.
