In depth
Verdict
With the possible of exception of Ryan Moore’s mount Mashaheer, none of those with experience have shown a great deal so far. Jim Crowley could have ridden the aforementioned but has instead chosen MUTAAQEB. Owen Burrows’ Invincible Spirit colt looks a likely sort for a race like this so gets the nod as Society Prince, who is a half-brother to four winners, is from a yard whose two-year-olds tend to improve with experience.
