G2 – 2392m – Turf
1 |
Gear Up |
Yet to return to some G1 winning two-year-old form, and he faded right out after leading for most of the way in this month’s Derby at Epsom. |
2 |
Alenquer |
His form is rock solid considering he outgalloped the subsequent Epsom Derby winner Adayar in a Sandown G3 in April. Should last this longer trip. Slow ground ideal. |
3 |
Belloccio |
A smart two-year-old, unbeaten in two starts including in Listed company. However he has been outpaced on both 2021 starts. |
4 |
Gloucestershire |
Weak in the betting market and slow from the gate didn’t prevent him winning a Kempton maiden on his only start, last December. |
5 |
Tasman Bay |
Facts and figures suggest continued improvement though his Newmarket conqueror last time did not enhance the form in the Epsom Derby. |
6 |
The Mediterranean |
Continued improvement, notably with his second in Listed company over this trip at Leopardstown last time. Stamina looks his strongpoint. |
7 |
Title |
Running in this G2 instead of handicap company on Thursday, and he has looked like a smart colt on both starts this season though only having won in maiden company. |
8 |
Yibir |
Looks a bit awkward in his races and can hang, but has run well enough in G3 and Listed company to suggest he has a small chance. |
