Verdict

Entirely possible that Danny Cook will keep this simple and seek to make all on Ballyvic Boru, and assuming that he's anywhere near his best level of form in bumpers, he should be taking this race with relative ease. However, for whatever reason, he's not seen too much competitive action since July 2017, and this race might be more about the future than the present. Therefore, we'll seek an alternative, and the horse who springs into mind is STAY IN TOUCH. Truthfully, he looks more of a stayer, but could prove well suited by an end to end gallop (a distinct possibility), and with the suspicion that he's better than we've seen so far in England, he's the token suggestion.
  1. Stay In Touch
  2. Ballyvic Boru
  3. Captain Mowbray
