DHAAMER is the most obvious choice to pick up the spoils in this race after an encouraging second at Newmarket, although there is a slight reservation that he has not tried this distance before. Considering there is not a great deal to stand between him and the win we will side with the John Gosden option here. Sinchiroka has track experience at this trip and this may be an advantage over the unexposed types in the field. Chasse Coeur has improved in his two starts so far and Andrew Balding has a 24% strike-rate on the Polytrack here this year and with more progression today she could be a danger. Although Chasse Coeur is considered, Dhaamer remains our selection.
