Forecasts

Decorated Knight (7/2), Somehow (4/1), Deauville (4/1), Success Days (9/2), Moonlight Magic (11/2), Johannes Vermeer (8/1), Reckless Gold (50/1), Gentil J (100/1)

Verdict

SUCCESS DAYS handles soft conditions better than most and he was only just touched off on his reappearance at Naas last time. Somehow is a smart filly and while she failed to land the odds in the Lockinge last time, she wasn't given a hard time when her chance had gone and she may do better here. Ryan Moore prefers the claims of Deauville but he's unlikely to appreciate the rain that has arrived.
