Verdict

WITHOUTDESTINATION is the only one of these proven over the trip having just missed out at Newcastle last month when 10 lengths clear of the rest. Marco Botti’s charge looks the one to beat on his handicap debut. Mondain is a likely improver having placed over 1m2f last year and better is also expected from L'Un Deux Trois over today’s distance on his fourth at Goodwood in September. Sea Art showed steady progress last term without threatening to win and makes most appeal of the remainder having been gelded subsequently with headgear applied for the first time on his reappearance.
