The vote goes to AGAINST THE WIND, who appeals as the type of sprinter that his excellent yard will make hay with in the months ahead. Indeed, he did the job well on his reappearance at Thirsk and a 6 lb rise is by no means prohibitive. Sudden Flight tops the shortlist of several dangers having shown plenty in three runs on the all-weather and more can be expected now handicapping with William Buick aboard. Just King High is third choice ahead of Acrisius and Elouise's Prince.
