Forecasts

Special Ted (5/4), Santiago de Cuba (15/8), Scheu Time (9/2), The Abbey (10/1), Chess Grand Master (12/1), Cardellino (28/1), Duffman (40/1), Penneys Hun (50/1), Watching Brief (50/1), Katbart (50/1)

Verdict

Joseph O'Brien has been mopping up these type of races aplenty lately and has an excellent knowledge of many of these runners through form-lines with his other horses. He should have a solid understanding as to exactly what the likes of Special Ted and Scheu Time have achieved, and it will be no surprise whatsoever if one of his two newcomers prevails. SANTIAGO DE CUBA looks the most obvious winner on pedigree, sales price and the all important jockey bookings with the excellent Derek O'Connor aboard.
  1. Santiago de Cuba
  2. The Abbey
  3. Special Ted
