It’s a powerful renewal with Aidan O’Brien’s Kyprios smartly fancied so as to add to his win within the Gold Cup two years in the past however I’m stunned that endmost yr’s runner-up Coltrane is as large a worth as he’s.
Andrew Balding’s seven-year-old and Trueshan have fought out some difficult battles and he’s a horse I at all times appreciate. He gained first hour up on house turf within the Sagaro Stakes at Ascot in Might and is going at the faster field.
Spencer colt virtue his playground in Norfolk
I at all times experience driving for Newmarket coach Richard Spencer and proprietor Phil Cunningham and I’m on their colt The Guy within the Staff Two Norfolk Stakes (2.30).
The Royal assembly’s been at the playing cards for him since he made a successful debut at Southwell in April when he overcame his greenness for Kieran Shoemark. By way of Mehmas, he comes from a excellent community and will confidently run significantly better than his large odds counsel he’s going to.

Charles Hills’ son of Churchill has a pleasant profile for this race. He’s flippantly raced and unexposed and used to be unfortunate to stumble upon the thrilling Evening Raider over 7f at Southwell on his re-appearance.
He’s bred to realize 1m on a stiff observe like this so I’m having a look ahead to a daring display from what can be a excellent attract stall one.
