surprising no thread about this, show's how dead this forum is these days, so I thought i'd put one up.
clearly there are no real superstars in the 2 year old division like there were last year with frankel and dream ahead,
although theres still hope that one might emerge at the end of the season, with races like the dewhurst, middle park etc.
My fancy for this race is the jessica harrington (who won this last year with pathfork) trained dragon's pulse. he showed
a very tidy turn of foot to get up last time. for me the main danger is the english raider talwar, who looks very solid indeed,
and will get every yard of the trip.
power will be many peoples fancy, but for me he's not that impressive. does he really need a step up in trip? for me he'll be
outstayed by the other two. in any case I think aiden can get some compensation at doncaster with daddy long legs.

Agree re Power - AOB must surely have one better.
Interesting what you say about his Champagne runner |

I like Talwar too but I can't find a great value angle. Not sure TAN will get the trip otherwise 14s looks fair.

that power had no problem staying after all. both the first two good prospects for next year- but hard to see them winning a classic.

Power is a Henrythenavigtor all over again.
People just don't understand him until he blooms. He is very solid...and the best so far of AOB for the mile races. Camelot and maybe Imperial Monarch are the best Derby Hopes so far. |
