Forecasts

City Of Troy (4/5), Henry Longfellow (10/11), Bucanero Fuerte (1/1), Islandsinthestream (12/1), Givemethebeatboys (25/1), Cuban Thunder (66/1)

Verdict

A mouthwatering clash between CITY OF TROY and Bucanero Fuerte. The latter was most impressive in the 6f Phoenix here and isn't opposed lightly with 7f promising to suit him even better but City of Troy looked something out of the ordinary when trouncing his rivals in the Superlative and can stretch his unbeaten record to 3.

  1. CITY OF TROY (USA)
  2. BUCANERO FUERTE
  3. HENRY LONGFELLOW (IRE)
