Forecasts

Autumn Winter (4/9), Thequietman (9/2), Versatile (11/2), Ecureuil Secret (15/2), Model Approach (50/1), Butter Fingers (80/1), Noble Andy (100/1), Fine Print (125/1), Total Look (150/1), Crest Of The Moon (250/1), Judicial Reward (250/1)

Verdict

Newcomer THEQUIETMAN will need to perform to a decent level if he's to get the better of experienced colts Autumn Winter and Versatile, but the son of Farhh certainly ticks plenty of the right boxes on paper and the aforementioned rivals do not set an insurmountable standard. If there is confidence behind Joseph O'Brien's representative in the betting, all the better. Autumn Winter, who holds an entry in the Irish Derby, is feared most ahead of the promising Versatile.
