    Persian Force for Hannon and Duchray for the Johnstons look bred for this so will be interested to see their odds along with Beach Breeze, but I prefer the first two.

    Well Persian Force is 5/4 favourite, Beach Breeze 4/1 second favourite and Duchray a non-runner, don’t think I’ll be having a bet.

    Good luck to you Ben. It’s always a guessing game this race, but I have went for Knowwhatimeanharry at 33-1 ew with B365 who are offering 4 places

    Probably a good shout to play a big odds ew shot in this race mate, that tactic has paid dividends in big maidens over the last few seasons.

    I’m tempted to say Brondesbury or Provideo but, with each passing year, there are fewer left who know what I’m on about.

    In an ever-changing world, it’s nice to see this race still kicking off the Flat Turf season.

    How many January foals in the line up?

    I like Blatant for last year’s winning connections. But also Knowwhatimeanharry looks quite interesting for Bill Turner.

    Tough to imagine a winning odds-on shot in THIS race. Maybe Nathan lumpen on.

    As a betting proposition, ff you haven’t got inside information or at the course to see them in the paddock – forget it. Even a lot of inside information is questionable too.

    You bring back some special memories with those two, Ian.

    Always thought Brondesbury had so much speed could’ve been better if there were 4f races. May have done better too without Soba.

    Despite Provideo not being anywhere near the best two year old of the season, Timeform made him Horse Of The Year believing the number of victories merited it. If I remember rightly not many years later Timeless Times matched it.

    Beach Breeze at 10s, for me.
    Best of luck to all :good:

    Sad to see ‘The Last Lion’, the last Brocklesby winner to win a 2yo Group 1, died at Kempton yesterday.
