        Verdict

        SIXTIES ICON looks the one to beat and can get team Europe off to a flier. Jeremy Noseda's charge has won his last three starts so arrives in America in peak form and his campaign has been geared around this race. He will stay every inch of the trip which will be crucial. Zappa looks the pick of the home team but while dropping in grade, he has never looked a dour stayer.
