EUSTON SQUARE looks unopposable in the finale with Cheers Big Ears and Mydy Easy the most likely players for the forecast slot. The presence of John Gosden's colt has rendered the race an apparent non-event and while the punters that supported him into 4/6 favouritism at Newmarket will be licking their wounds, it would be unfortunate for lightning to strike twice. Cheers Big Ears looked as if he would learn plenty for his first experience at Wolverhampton so we will be awaiting the evidence here. Mydy Easy is related to a number of American winners. The Windsor maiden that he made his debut in looks a fair one on balance. Jamie Osborne's duo were easy to back at Wolverhampton and this is a tougher race. The John Harris trio should not realistically be good enough. Euston Square will struggle to get easier opportunities to score than this and we will not oppose.
