Paricolor has the highest rating but he is giving 14lb and upwards, less his rider’s claim, to the others and he’s been a bit disappointing in recent starts. CHIEFTAIN’S CHOICE finished a couple of lengths ahead of Mizen Master when a close second at Stratford on Monday and is better off at the weights. The 12-year-old has his ground again today and can go one better. Poucor is preferred to Let's Sway of the remainder.
