RACING POST VERDICT

Snellen is rated second of six on our figures at 111, only narrowly behind Adelaide River's 114, but her progressive profile earns her the nod as our selection in this race. Her form has been building in the right direction and she looks capable of taking another step forward now. Adelaide River, Geryon and Isaac Newton all rate as the principal dangers on our figures, with Adelaide River the obvious chief threat given the head figure. It's no better than a medium-confidence verdict, but Snellen's trajectory edges it for us ahead of the highest-rated runner.
