Forecasts

King Arthurs Sword (11/4), War Leader (3/1), Toronto (5/1), Gibson Desert (7/1), Masteroffoxhounds (8/1), Britannia Kitten (9/1), Mohican Heights (14/1), Lil Grey (25/1), At War (28/1), Megans Beau (50/1), Darkest Hour (50/1)

Verdict

Just one racecourse appearance between them and that ensures the betting will be key here. Ballydoyle run three and all make decent appeal on paper. TORONTO gets a nominal vote ahead of the betting, the Galileo colt and close relative of Canford Cliffs likely to be suited by this test first time out. War Leader and Masteroffoxhounds could well be his main rivals, though it is also quite easy to suggest Britannia Kitten, At War and King Arthurs Sword will be better than average in time.
  1. Toronto
  2. War Leader
  3. Britannia Kitten
