DECLARED RUNNERS 6 2021: NUVOLARI 2 9 5 Sean Levey 8-1 (Eve Johnson Houghton) 10 ran

Probable S.P’s: 15-8 Serious Look (IRE), 2-1 American Belle (IRE), 4-1 Tellateller (IRE), 15-2 Kohana Breeze (IRE), 40-1 The Game Is Up (GB), 300-1 Irezumi (GB)

PLAY SMARTER AMERICAN BELLE improved from first run to second, promising even more, and she’s a pretty straightforward selection. Serious Look has run to a similar level on his first 2 starts, but arguably lacks the selection’s potential, and the same can be said for Tellateller.
