Verdict
GARDEN ROUTE has had wind surgery and a gelding operation since placing at Newmarket and Kempton in the autumn but is probably the one to beat in this if fully wound-up. Nottingham fourth Aurora Charm has scope for further improvement and Peaceful Story has a similar profile and more recent form. Paternoster Square looks the type who might improve for a switch to handicaps but he makes most appeal of the remainder.
