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.
