In depth

Verdict

Another where the market should tell all and Gallagher is the pick against Donativum and Orizaba. The booking of Jamie Spencer looks highly significant and as a relation to plenty of winning two-year-old's, one's eye is immediately caught by Gallagher. Donativum is bred to be better with more time. The trip might catch him out here but he is impeccably bred. Orizaba was cheaply bought in comparison to many in this race. Related to a number of winning juvenile sprinters, he is watched closely in the market. Ghaayer is probably notebook material today. Motor Home is a half-brother to Folga so speed looks assured. Taste The Wine is a remarkably well bred sort and from a shrewd yard. Any confidence is therefore noted. Without the benefit of market information, we are with Gallagher.
