      Verdict

      Aegeus ended the summer season with a maiden success at Newcastle and has switched yards subsequently. The Jean Genie’s earlier second at Chelmsford came in a lower grade than this and Wimpole Hall is also upped in class after scoring at the same track. Just The Man struggled in a tougher race at Kempton last time having won over a longer trip at the latter venue before that but SKY DEFENDER finished in front of Michele Strogoff when fourth over course and distance on his first outing since May. Mark Johnston’s colt will be sharper for that pipe-opener and looks to have every chance in a tight contest.
