Verdict

In a contest where the betting will obviously provide more clues the suggestion is BUCANERO FUERTE who is bred to be pretty smart. Colin Keane takes the ride on Michael O'Callaghan's Prince X J and he's next on the list ahead of Spanish Cara, whose yard won this 2 years ago.

  1. BUCANERO FUERTE
  2. PRINCE X J (IRE)
  3. SPANISH CARA (IRE)
