In depth

Verdict

Absolutely no form to go on but that’s a condition of the race. So Deuce went for 290,000 guineas at the sales last year and connections have had to be patient but Charlie Johnston’s team are enjoying a resurgence at present so SIR GEOFF HURST may be the one to strike today. Campaign Medal is of a high class pedigree and we are sure to see more from the son of No Nay Never next year while William Haggas was amongst the winners earlier in the week so Grey Charger has to enter calculations. Don Simon is very much one to note with the future in mind given he’s out of Oaks winning dam, Snow Fairy.
