Verdict
A couple of these are clear of the rest on these terms though both GIFTED MASTER and Waterloo Bridge drop back in trip. The former ended last year with a victory in the Group 3 Autumn Stakes over a mile here in October and easily beat runner-up Waterloo Bridge to land the Tattersalls Millions Trophy over 7f on the Rowley Course before that. Aidan O'Brien's charge had enough speed to land the Norfolk Stakes over 5f at Ascot in June and any further rain may give him the best chance of reversing running with the selection. The remainder are guaranteed prize money with Tigerwolf the best of them on his fourth behind Gifted Master here last term.
