Forecasts

Always On The Run (9/4), Pantxoa (5/1), Jovial Joey (5/1), Kilbree Kid (11/2), Baileys Concerto (6/1), Russian Regent (10/1), Yes Tom (18/1), Mia's Anthem (22/1)

Verdict

There was little to separate Russian Regent and Baileys Concerto in this contest in 2016, and the pair renew battle twelve months on with a similar outcome likely in the match contest (based upon Bailey's doubtful stamina). However, the 2017 winner should come from elsewhere. KILBREE KID adores this track, and 3m on good ground suits him perfectly. The booking of Ciaran Gethings provides a valuable 3lb off his back and serves to reduce his mark just enough to record another C&D success.
  1. Kilbree Kid
  2. Always On The Run
