BETTING FORECAST:
11-4 Wagner (IRE), 10-3 Accordingtogino (IRE), 9-2 Doitforthevillage (IRE), 11-2 Reve (GB), 12-1 Generator City (IRE), 14-1 Templehills (IRE), 20-1 Young Turk (FR)
RACE SUMMARY:
This is something of a minefield and, by process of elimination, ACCORDINGTOGINO gets the nod. The 8-y-o failed to fire on his latest start, but he holds strong claims judged on much of last season’s form. This trip is a worry where Wagner is concerned (looked a non-stayer over 23f last time), while Doitforthevillage’s record when fresh doesn’t augur well and the others all have a bit to prove.
