“He’d also already won a group 1 by 10+ lengths and was rated half a stone higher than kyprios.”
Point taken regarding the group 1 win. The higher rating understandable as Kyprios more unexposed coming into this race.
“Order Of St George was beaten four times in Ireland.”
My wording might have confused you, i meant he was doing his winning in Ireland. I was aware he didn’t win all his races.
Mojo Star is the big unknown both at the trip and on the ground (good being the quickest he has run on) and coming here first time out is a big ask but he has looked tapped for toe on a number of runs last season including in the St Leger.
So I will take a chance on this being what he has been crying out for and a little e/w on Burning Victory who looks tailor made for this trip based on her Cesarewitch 2nd when she was a long way clear of the rest.
I’ll be with Earlofthecotswolds here 66-1 ew, but it is merely for interest, as I’m struggling to take a strong view on the market leaders

Used to be ground dependable but seems ok on firm now.
Each way hopes hereThought mojo had that then
Just showed 16/1 mojo and 13/8 kyprios was a silly price difference
Wd winners
Great attitude from Kyprios. Looked like he was headed but he really battled.
Not Dettori’s finest hour (again) but I am not convinced he would have beaten Kyprios anyway.
Didn’t look like they went much of a gallop; the horse with speed won….which is disappointing for a staying race.
Ta all. I never lost faith in the horse despite the AOB indifferent form this week.
Ryan Moore thought Kyprios wasn’t at his best today as his horse wants a strong pace to aim at and the race was messy.
First Kyprios got in the way then Mojo Star. Not ideal at all.
Hope Stradivarius goes to Goodwood.
