In depth

Verdict

Kentucky Derby runner-up Lookin At Lee has claims if lasting home over this longer trip as he finished ahead of both Irish War Cry and GORMLEY at Churchill Downs. The former has come in for plenty of support ante -post but the latter is taken to land an open renewal. A wide draw proved his undoing in the Kentucky Derby but he’s a Grade 1 winner and John Shirreffs’ colt should stay the distance. Japanese raider Epicharis has also proved popular in the betting though a wide draw is less than ideal despite the 1m4f trip while Tapwrit is another looking to bounce back from a below par effort in the Kentucky Derby.
