I quite like Crossed Baton for this race, but the biggest concern for me is that Dettori is booked for what looks like the stables number one runner, Global Giant.
I thought that he would go on to bigger and better things after his win in The Churchill Stakes, but he wasn’t very good at Ascot. I think that connections put that below par performance down to the ground.
I won’t bet him just now, but I do think that 14-1 with Skybet is alright, because even though Dettori is booked for the other one, the weather forecast looks beneficial to the chances of Crossed Baton.
