Bond Brooklyn, Bridgewater Boys, Garrigon, Little Eye, Royal Awakening, Saffron River, Bookiesindexdotcom and Faites Vos Jeux form the long shortlist here with our vote to Bond Brooklyn. Each of the horses mentioned have placed efforts to their name that have suggested ability and Bond Brooklyn, Garrigon, Little Eye, Bookiesindexdotcom and Iphigenia are very closely rated on official ratings. This said, the selection has run some solid races in defeat recently, benefiting from the application of headgear. He acts here and holds a solid chance by most criteria. Of the others that have not been mentioned, Vittorioso might improve for his racecourse debut while Sable'n Silk has something to like on breeding but was cheaply acquired. However, we¿ll stick with Bond ¿ that¿s Bond Brooklyn.
