King Of Steal of a price @ 3/1. Really impressed with this fella, hopefully he can get a group 1 on the board. Word of warning though, the last horse to win this race without a group 1 to it’s name was Pentire all the way back in 1995 (Geoff Wragg/Michael Hills)
This has shock written all over it , Rodin at 3s is a shocking price and King of Steel was put in his place by the older horses last time

Different ground today and not as far.
I’d like Stott to sit first 4 following the pace and then kicking ‘Derby style’. Riding too far back might get the horse into some trouble.
I’ve backed Spreewell to , couldn’t back any of those at the front of the market at the prices

Just a watching race for me but I would select Alfaila solely based on the improvement these Shadwell horses are showing.
The more I know the less I understand.
Onesto on 8/1 is quite good, but I hate backing. Frankie again. I’ll stay with my AP bet on Nashwa.
Cracking stuff from Team Ballydoyle. Chapeau.
At the opposite end of the scale, that commentator (Jerry Hannon?) needs to go. He’s awful.
Incredible. Although Luxembourg and Point Lonsdale made sure the pace was set up for him. Coolmore wanted that 10 furlong Group 1 on his CV!
Can’t help feeling both Nashwa and King of Steel were both too far back and disadvantaged by jockeys who do not ride at Leopardstown very often.
What was the rest doing behind the new Ballydoyle pacemaker Luxembourg? The three had a pretty uncontested lead. It was still an outstanding performance, but it turned into a two horse race from the start.
Yes Glad, he needs to go. That was awful!!!!
The only way he could have won it was by his stable companions making it a true test but he was all out at the end – Nashwa ran another great race considering how far back she was and fair play to Luxembourg who was on the front end the whole way and rallied when headed.
No clue how you rate the overall form as they were all in a heap at the finish.
