While I think that the hard-as-nails Bow Echo is the one to beat, the horse that’s now catching my attention is Into The Sky…
A very impressive, wide-margin winner on his debut. Followed that up when scooting several lengths clear before getting mowed down late on by Words Of Truth after looking the winner. This defeat reminded me of when Coroebus lost the 2021 Royal Lodge in similar fashion.
I’m hopeful Into The Sky will stay the Rowley Mile. If he does and is ridden with more restraint, he might just steal a march on the field. The timing must be crucial though. He is currently 25/1
