    I can see it being between the two three year olds and Emily upjohn. Auguste rodin to just outstay them having initially being slightly outpaced. Luxembourg may sneak a place. Love to see pyledriver win but can’t see it. Hukum probably needs it softer.

    3yos have a pretty poor record in the race since the mid 90s

    Only 6 won in the last 26 renewals if I counted correctly

    Reverse Exacta, King Of Steel and Pyledriver. The latter has proven himself in this race last year, King Of Steel potentially the progressive one of the three-year-olds. Tough race though and the best renewal for a good few years for strength in depth.

    I’m in the Emily Upjohn camp , she ran a cracker at to short last time , Rodin could be a superstar but he didn’t look like one last time and they’ll be no ” after you old man ” today , it’s a cracking race , I’ve backed Bolshoi Ballet purely as there’s no way he,a a 150-1 shot , love him to sneak a place

    Disappointing that Hamish won’t be going, there was always the
    chance that’s how it would work out. At least I’ve still got Hukam
    at 7s.

    Westover is my selection here, and I’ve put him in a double with Ancient Wisdom for the 2000gns for a bit of added interest.
