I’m Spartacus rates just a pound behind Gordon Bennett on these figures, but it is a progressive profile that tips the balance in his favour over five furlongs on good ground at Naas, suggesting there is more to come from him than the bare rating implies. Gordon Bennett, the top-rated runner, represents the most obvious danger and will need to be accounted for, with Tawaazon and Aurora Nova also capable of making their presence felt in what looks a competitive nineteen-runner sprint. The selection carries medium confidence given the size of the field, but the upward trajectory here is compelling enough to side with I’m Spartacus.
