Forecasts

Native Trail (2/5), Buckaroo (3/1), Ivy League (18/1), Wexford Native (25/1), Imperial Fighter (28/1), New Energy (40/1), Atomic Jones (40/1), Duke De Sessa (50/1), Malex (100/1)

Verdict

NATIVE TRAIL was possibly a little unlucky to lose his unbeaten record in the 2000 Guineas and can emulate Kingman in 2014 who was second at Newmarket before easily going one better here. Buckaroo was a very convincing winner in listed company here recently and can give Godolphin's charge most to do. The fast-improving Ivy League looks best of the remainder.
