Our view
Best selection: Diplomatic Ash. Recent figures of 1 – won last time; trainer Gary & Josh Moore has had 55 winners from 543 runners in our recent records.
The case against: returns from a long break, so fitness is a question; Holy Legend is close on the numbers; handicap marks are meant to level the field; we can't yet confirm how it handles ground from our own records.
Others to consider: Holy Legend and Jackomy.
