Verdict

A tightly-knit Group 3 on Timeform ratings with GLADIUS just about the most persuasive option as he's the one open to most progress after just 5 career starts. Fellow 3-y-o Damysus is in top hands and his limit may not have been reached, while Liberty Lane will be bang there if near the level he was displaying at this venue a year ago (second in this race).

Gladius (Ire) silk

Made rapid progress in his short career, looking a smart prospect when making a successful handicap debut at Sandown (9f) and did nothing to alter that view when following up at Goodwood in August. Just a fair fourth in Group 3 company at York latest but may yet kick on again.

Damysus silk

Frankel colt and AW debut winner, still very raw but continuing to improve all the time, keeping on for second behind Pride of Arras in the Dante. Found the Derby too much but capitalised on big drop in grade in French listed race in August. No surprise were there more to come.

Liberty Lane (Ire) silk

Put up one of the handicap performances of 2024 when winning the Cambridgeshire over C&D and backed that up when second in this race. Hasn't scaled same heights this term with just a listed success to his name but far from disgraced at Ayr last time. Big player on these terms.
