Verdict

Business Class and THE HAGUE look best here and it is the latter that makes the selection with Elusive Glen also making some appeal. The three-year-old selection ran well in defeat last time and the way he ran on suggests there is a deal of improvement to come particularly now he's been stepped up in trip. The mark of 66 seems lenient and the gelding should be able to take advantage. David Nicholls trained Business Class made the frame on his career debut last time and enjoyed the benefit of a decent Southern Hemisphere weight allowance though he was never really a threat to the winner. Colt Elusive Glen makes his career debut today and has a good opportunity to get off to a decent start. The market is best watched for this one but The Hague is the one for us.
