Must admit I really like this race, not only this year but its always a very good pointer towards future topline horses.
I think whoever wins this race is set for an exceptional career.
I f Dark Target runs Im sure it will be a raging favorite, with My Time, Versarc, Major Canny (please draw a barrier soon) and Nurse Norma the other hopes.

And then we all saw what happenned, an absoulte monstering.
Bunched finish in the Belgravia, with a couple that should have been outclassed on form finishing up close. To me that means that the 3yo's left here are probably an even bunch of decent but not great horses.
Even if he doesn't butter up the best, he should belt them.
