RACING POST VERDICT

Bobbarelli heads this Class 5 contest at Stratford on a rating that leaves him narrowly ahead of Youdecide and a clear step above the remainder, and over this stiff twenty-one-furlong trip on good-to-firm ground he has the profile of a horse who can see out every yard. Youdecide is the most obvious danger on ratings, while Pescatorius and Jack Doyen will not be without their chances if the selection fails to fire, so there is enough in the field to keep connections honest. The confidence here is measured rather than absolute, but the form and the rating edge both point the same way. Bobbarelli is the selection.
