Forecasts

Jan Brueghel (11/4), Illinois (11/4), Grosvenor Square (7/2), Sunway (11/2), You Got To Me (13/2), Deira Mile (28/1), Wild Waves (40/1)

Aidan O'Brien typically holds a strong hand as he bids for a seventh success in the oldest Classic, while Ralph Beckett tries to win this with a filly once again, but SUNWAY looks the value call. His close second in the Irish Derby puts him right up there in terms of form and the longer distance promises to suit. The unbeaten Jan Brueghel has the most potential in the field and rates the main threat, though stablemate Illinois is also well in the mix on his narrow Great Voltigeur second.
