    I’ve no idea how far Bucanero Fuerte will stay, but, if he turns out a sprinter, I’d say 8/1 for this with William Hill and Unibet would be fair.

    And if you take any notice of overall times, you’d have to be potentially interested in Cherry Blossom too – 16/1 with Unibet but not yet quoted by William Hill.

    Bucanero Fuerte another Kinross? 7f on Good, and back to 6f on soft.

    I like the look of Vandeek for this

    He’s taken a big step forward with each run

    He’s by Havana grey out of an exceed and excel mare who both won sprint group 1s at 3 so he has a good chance of training on

    I imagine he and bucanero will clash in the middle park

    Think il leave it till then to have an antepost bet

    At 8-10/1 he’s a solid price but I don’t feel compelled to take it

    After Cherry Blossom has made all to win the Lowther by the length of the Knavesmire you might want to add her to your portfolio.

    I’m on Bucanero Fuerte and her for this, but cracking effort from Vandeek today.

    It seems the race is at risk of being downgraded from Group 1.

    Airman 66/1 e/w, just won ok at Hamilton, only his second start. Connections must have some faith to have an entry here.

    Jassour 16/1

    Have vandeek backed too

    He will need much better ground than he got today

    Dissapointing performance either way, but he’s very fast and he pulled too hard today.

    Vandeek and Bucanero Fuerte both pulled from this.

    Looks open and a decent race but for a group 1 looks a bit on the average side. Wanted one for an each way poke and PANDORAS GIFT has had a bit of backing in recent days. I took 20’s. She was entered in the race INISHERIN won but was scratched due to the ground. Not sure what to expect so just hopeful of a good run for my money.

    The chance of this being downgraded to Group 2 next year as mentioned earlier in this thread has been strongly enhanced by the lineup this year which is nothing better than the Group 3 trials the market principles won.

    It is unfortunate how many leading contenders are now missing and I agree it could easily lose it’s current status.
    Kinď Of Blue has won two Class 5 races and should not be up to it but to me this could go any way.
