Verdict
With no form to go on the market should be the best guide. A five-year-old won it last year but four-year-olds had won the three previous renewals. Strepitant is a half-brother to St Leger winner Encke but he wouldn’t be running in a race like this if he’d shown a fraction of his sibling’s ability. JUBATUS is out of a winning bumper and a half-brother to winners on the Flat and over jumps – he’s not travelled over from Ireland for a holiday. Forchena is a half-sister to winning jumpers so looks the danger with Golden Coin and Inexorable looking nothing special on pedigree.
