It's over 2800m and there is a very good stayer running in this in the form of Brundhand, with Charlie Appleby and the ride of William Buick.

The UK markets have him odds-on at 8/11 with the stablemate Ispolini on 7/2. He's being ridden by Mickael Barzelona as James Doyle can't do the weight. We also have a soft spot for the bin Suroor runner Bin Battuta as we were big fans of both Ibn Battuta the explorer and Ibn Battuta the horse - he's on 4/1. Brundtland has a weight advantage here and even though he's on the outside there are only 7 runners.
