Forecasts

Way of Wisdom (1/2), De Bruyne Horse (11/2), Weellan (8/1), Musbaq (9/1), Reel Mr Bond (25/1), Lever Du Soleil (25/1), Budgie (33/1), Ventura Crest (66/1)

Verdict

It is hard to oppose WAY OF WISDOM given his manner of victory at Newmarket over Guineas weekend to beat a highly regarded Mark Johnston newcomer and the fourth has won since. His rider subjected him to a lovely educational ride that day and he won without really knowing he'd had a race. Mark Johnston will know exactly how Musbaq will stand with the likely favourite and he is one to note in the market. Wellan is bred for speed and represents a yard that are going well whilst Lever Du Soleil could be a nice horse for the future. De Bruyne Horse has plenty to find on form but is entitled to improve for his debut run and now meets WAY OF WISDOM on 7lb better terms than when they faced each other at Newmarket.
  1. Way of Wisdom
  2. Musbaq
  3. De Bruyne Horse
