In depth

Verdict

Trials 'n Tribs makes most appeal in a distinctly moderate finale and he gets the vote ahead of Lysander's Quest and Given A Chance. The last mentioned has slipped to a fair mark but recent form over hurdles is of concern so he may be best watched. Lenwade has been knocking on the door of late and should be thereabouts again, while Lefonic is seemingly better on the all-weather and is hard to recommend on recent form on turf. Lysander's Quest has been on a downward spiral for some time now but has slipped to a fair mark, however, Trials 'n Tribs looks to be running into form and he gets the vote.
