It’s very difficult to oppose CRACKSMAN, who slammed Poet’s Word in the Champion Stakes in October. He’s been a leading light in the middle-distance division and although his latest run at Epsom was below his best, he had excuses that day and if anywhere near his imperious best here, he won’t be for catching. Dual Group 1 winner Hawkbill should fill the frame, given he has the beating of Poet’s Word on the Sheema Classic form.
