The Everest looks an evenly balanced race and, like so many major events, the superior ride often wins.
Potential is the key for Cylinder against the older group 1 topliners. Figures don’t favour him, but neither did they encourage support for Giga Kick, the youngster that triumphed in The Everest last year.
McEvoy’s current mount Shinzo – another three-year-old colt – will also be advantaged by speed up front. Shinzo tottered to the line lame last start, but McEvoy is confident of a better effort today and described him as “foot loose and fancy free”. Rawiller also scored on Espiona recently, and was involved in close finishes aboard Hawaii Five Oh and Cylinder – covering extra ground on the latter that cost him dearly in the opinion of Cummings.Like Private Eye , Hawaii Five Oh has drawn awkwardly. James McDonald takes over on Hawaii Five Oh, which looked well above himself in condition last start but was only photo-finished out in the Premiere Stakes over 1200 metres by Everest favourite Think About It .
If the racing pattern on Saturday allows backmarkers to cut loose effectively then I Wish I Win probably has the best finish.
