    Verdict

    Zakouski had a run under his belt before winning last year’s renewal with Stormy Antarctic well beaten on the heavy ground. The former won a Group 2 at Meydan back in February while SAFE VOYAGE has faced tougher opposition than this since landing a Listed race at Chester in July with Oh This Is Us back in third. John Quinn’s charge should make a bold bid returning to this level and gets the vote. The unbeaten Dante's Pass tries his luck in Pattern company with Ryan Moore taking over the reins while Jadoomi hasn’t raced since finishing behind Van Gogh in a Group 1 race in France just over a year ago.
