        Verdict

        The blinkers enabled Hard To Know to get his head in front for the first time at Ludlow, but that was a poor event and it remains to be seen whether they will help him a second time. He looks worth taking on with Mutadarra, who was only just touched off in a better race than this at Stratford. Donatus achieved little when runner-up last time, but is not without a chance on his best form.
