Stewards Note: MAJESTIC MERLIN: Following its run on 4/3/2021 it was reported that the horse lost a shoe. NEW ZEALANDER: Following its run on 27/9/2021 it was reported that the horse would prefer a faster surface.

Probable S.P’s: 5-2 Norley (IRE), 5-1 Noble Savage (IRE), 6-1 Amelia’s Dance (IRE), 8-1 Majestic Merlin (GB), New Zealander (GB), 11-1 Peloric (GB), 14-1 Sarceaux (FR), 22-1 Ascot Day (FR), 33-1 Gaelic Thunder (GB)

PLAY SMARTER Having found only a well-handicapped rival too strong at Exeter, NORLEY went one better in ready fashion at Stratford 3 weeks ago and his revised mark looks well within range. Noble Savage and Majestic Merlin are feared most unless there’s confidence in the betting behind New Zealander.
