Verdict

Resplendent Prince gets the tentative nomination here with Labelled With Love and Merdiff heading the list of dangers. The selection won well last time out when beating Gem Bien. Granted that was only a seller but with his confidence restored and off what remains a fair mark he looks to have solid claims. Labelled With Love rates the main danger on his latest second behind Million Percent but this hold-up performer will need luck in running if he is to win from this draw. Merdiff is another that could go well on his latest fourth behind Perez but he is hard to win with and remains high enough in the weights. Mr Rigsby has dropped to a handy mark and could go well at a price but Resplendent Prince has plenty in his favour and is our choice to lead them home.
