Forecasts

Finans Bay (13/8), Astadash (9/2), Pin Your Hopes (9/2), Party Season (11/2), Ivan The Great (6/1), Thaleeq (9/1), Yulong Magicreef (11/1), Mccabe (14/1), Battle Of Benburb (25/1), Punk Poet (25/1), Manndalina (80/1), Royal Scholar (100/1), Magic Charm (150/1), Callmejango (250/1)

Verdict

PARTY SEASON is impossible to oppose on his debut as Aidan O'Brien's son of American Pharoah fetched a tidy one million dollars as a yearling and holds some lofty entries. Finans Bay looks the pick of those with experience so rates next best, while Thaleeq is another worth considering for place purposes.

  1. PARTY SEASON (USA)
  2. FINANS BAY (IRE)
  3. THALEEQ
