Verdict

Undoubtedly a deep handicap, but such was the impression BABY ZEUS created on debut for Willie Mullins in May, he is hard to get away from despite a 9 lb rise. Mirann finished second in that race and wasn't seen to best effect at Royal Ascot so he could be the main threat again, with Silaiyli perhaps the pick of the 3-y-os.

  1. BABY ZEUS (IRE)
  2. MIRANN (FR)
  3. SILAIYLI (IRE)
