The class-dropping The Gospel Of Mark has claims at this level, while Golden Money has to be respected on the back of three recent near misses.

Specialized is sure to prove popular in his current form and the colt should go close in his bid to land a hat-trick. Nevertheless, JEBIP has some strong form to his name and is taken to put his latest defeat, when bumped at the start, behind him. A Prayer For Kids is next best.
