Race preview
Kapal Layar sets the standard with an official rating of 106 and the son of Milan is expected to go close, but the vote goes to debutant TYRRHENUS. Dan Skelton's gelding is a half-brother to two hurdle winners, most notably West Balboa, and it's unlikely he'd need to be anything out of the ordinary to make a winning start. Five Quarters finished a well-held second on his hurdling bow last month, but the winner of that race could be useful.
