        In depth

        Verdict

        Some interesting newcomers here and each needs a check in the betting however Autumn Blades sets a fair standard and John Hills colt gets the nomination ahead of Traphalgar. The selection has finished fourth on both of his starts to date but with the services of the 'People's Champion' Ryan Moore, this son of Daggers Drawn should run well. The form of his debut behind Iguazu Falls is rock solid and proven on an artificial surface, he looks the one to be on. Traphalgar will get further in time and looks one for next season but his run behind City Leader (third in the Racingpost Trophy) bears close scrutiny. Distinctive Image should be at home on the all-weather given his American pedigree, whilst Gainsborough's Art and Hawk Island are two other nicely-bred sorts to be weary of. Stormbeam cost $130,000 and comes from a stable who can ready a newcomer, however whilst Silent Master could run well on his third outing, it is Autumn Blades who gets the nod.
