6.00 Kempt

I found it slightly extraordinary that Deceiver was a firm 2nd favourite despite never having run on all-weather, having not been seen since being beaten out of sight 12 lengths at Newbury six months ago, and frankly not doing much to shout about before that. Who are these genius odds compilers and how much back channel is there between yards and bookmakers? I do not mean to imply any wrongdoing; it is an honest question about market formation.
