A fair bit of guesswork involved here and so will will give a narrow vote to Silver Guest, Cee Bargara and Fox's Den are two others to keep a close eye on in the betting. Mick Channon generally has a few good early juveniles and Silver Guest looks the part on paper. He is a 42 thousand guineas son of Lujain who is related to numerous winners, including triple sprint winner Ajigolo. The market will be the ultimate guide, but we do expect him to be supported and he gets the tentative nomination. Cee Bargara cost 55 thousand guineas as a yearling and hails from a stable well capable of getting one ready first time up. Fox's Den is a very early foal and although a cheap purchase, he could be more forward than most. Non Sucre and Sirjoshua Reynolds are two more with interesting pedigrees, but we return to Silver Guest as the most likely winner.
