Forecasts

Finest Sound (7/2), Dawaam (7/2), Strait Of Hormuz (4/1), Baryshnikov (9/2), Good Birthday (11/2), Spanish Archer (13/2), Harrovian (10/1), Bear Force One (10/1), Benadalid (33/1)

Verdict

Third and fourth respectively in the John Smith's Cup at York, STRAIT OF HORMUZ and Dawaam could be the pair to concentrate on. The latter didn't enjoy the best of luck on the Knavesmire and can be expected to finish closer to Strait of Hormuz here, but Jedd O'Keeffe's charge also did well under the circumstances that day and is taken to confirm his superiority. Spanish Archer is best of the rest.
