---|---|---|---|---|
Loads of speed from Troach, Psychiatrist and Kibou pressing forward in the early stages. SEBONACK (1) didn't handle the heavy track in the Golden Slipper and prior to that was very good in the Blue Diamond Stakes. Loved his first trial before not asked for much at his second. Drawn to get every hope and has a touch of class on his side. SPACEWALK (3) looks to be back in great order and worth noting they have got his feet right with the synthetic hoof filler coming off. McDonald booked from the soft draw and he looms as a major threat. KIBOU (5) has come up very short for a horse that hasn't really won much. Didn't think much of his recent trial either. ZOUKERINO (11) was a sharp winner on debut and appears capable of taking that next step. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Sebonack in his return.
