Verdict
Beseiged has plenty of experience, but it will be a surprise if one of the newcomers, can't beat him. Cumbrian Knight, from a yard that does well in these events, has to be respected, while Freedom's Flame is also one to keep an eye on, but the one to make them all go could be Kidithou. From a top class yard, who win their fair share of these races, he is sure to know what's required.
