Forecasts

Wordsworth (85/40), Gear Up (10/3), Master Of Reality (4/1), Temple Of Artemis (5/1), Manu Et Corde (13/2), Sussex (15/2), Camorra (10/1), Sunchart (20/1)

Verdict

This is a pretty quick turnaround for WORDSWORTH having raced at Royal Ascot but he couldn't be in better hands and tackling a more suitable trip, he may outclass these. Master of Reality is fancied to build on his reappearance, with Temple of Artemis, a stablemate of the selection, the improver in the race.

  1. WORDSWORTH (IRE)
  2. MASTER OF REALITY (IRE)
  3. TEMPLE OF ARTEMIS (IRE)
