Unbeaten in four starts, including two Grade 1s, but will need plenty of luck from outside draw. Current Odds 11/4
My Conclusion Tough race as I like a couple, Alfred Nobel should run well from good draw but im swayed towards Radiohead, his sire was a breeders cup winner and he has showed glimpses of stamina with his undoubted speed and at 16/1 has to be a good e/w bet. Selection is:- Radiohead 16/1 e/w |
