Verdict

An ultra-competitive closer to the Derby Festival and although he may be at least a couple years older than any of his rivals, MR WAGYU is selected to enhance his fine record in this race and snap a losing streak going back almost 2 years. Mums Tipple shaped quite well without being seen to best effect at Newmarket 4 weeks ago so he can give the selection most to think about, with Apollo One, Russet Gold and Strike Red a handful of others to consider, too.

  1. MR WAGYU (IRE)
  2. MUMS TIPPLE (IRE)
  3. APOLLO ONE
