Verdict
Far Gone has had many chances but we will give him one more go, Replicator and Mansii look to be the main rivals. Michael Bell's charge has yet to finish out of the first four and has come up against some decent types. He may be vulnerable to an unexposed type but does set a decent standard. Mansii has earned top-weight with some excellent efforts this season and with Ryan Moore on board another good run is expected. Replicator put in his best performance to date when just piped at Kempton. He could be on the upgrade and has to be respected. Recent course and distance winner Then'n Now could prove best of the others, but Far Gone does appear to have the best form on show and gets a narrow vote.
